Of flowing river and brilliant musings: Coorg!

Jan 26, 2012 6.45 pm Place: COORG, Amanvana


So here we are at the Scotland of India- COORG after a small flight and long cab journey via Mysore! Despite being up since 5am and except for catching small snoozes during the drive, my dear Anvita and I are still chirpy, giggly, cracking jokes and absolutely fresh. The legs hurt but not like they would after a presentation for hours. Eyes are dry as well but I still don’t mind gazing at the stars in our private courtyard (ahem..! ) that houses a lotus pond as well. The bungalow is absolutely beautiful with patio lighting for honeymooners (hyuk!!).Amanvana, the place we are staying in the ever so beautiful Coorg is almost like a ‘jack in the box’ kind’a place. While entering this property both anvita and I were wondering if its location in the city would really be any good for our ‘chaen’ and ‘Aman’ but surprisingly it’s not just incredibly beautiful with manicured landscapes but supremely serene as well. There’s a lot of promise for a quaint picnic alongside river Kaveri with our respective books and chutney sandwiches. The chocolate scrub at the spa sure would be super relaxing too J however that is still a promise as of now.


Meanwhile, am awaiting the ‘Blue Banyan’ wine (a a new brand of wine) & cheese crackers to ease off any remaining tensions of physical and the emotional journey of life.
