In the end it went right!

I had planned it over the summer.. Set up a team of like minded friends and batch-mates.. We were pretty comfortable with the nature trail planned out a week ago..

But come tuesday before the trail on sunday we were in a fix. Students enrolling for the programme were increasing by the day. We dint close down the entry as we wanted all to learn and have fun. Come thursday, we were had to cancel our partnership with Trailblazers as there was some misunderstanding in the terms of agreement. So we were in a state where we had no fixed transport agent and nor any guide in the forest area.

Friday the picture was changed. We had guides and we had a transport company. Everything was in place and we were pretty healthy financially also. But then on Saturday, the rain had a field day. there was water logging everywhere. It rained the entire day and I had a tough time getting back home on Kavish Jain's bike. Though he did a marvellous job of riding through waterlogged streets.

It was drizzling at about 9pm when i started getting frantic calls from students and even our teacher.
"Are we going tomorrow?".. I gave a standard answer to alteast 50 callers : "its too early to call it off. if it continues to rain through the night i ll sms everyone that its cancelled."

I slept early after watching the Arg vs Ger match. Woke up by a call at 3:30am. somebody asking.. " hey dude are we going today ? " ...I was so mind fucked that i said yes and cut the call..

It was safe to go. No flooding along the course to karnala.. At 4:30am I called up the bus driver who was to reach Malad at 5. he said he was sleeping and he ll be coming only by 6.! i was like WTF! After arguing and calling his owner he made it by 5:15am.

Another shocker.. due to pressure inside the bus at night the side glass of our bus had broken and the 4 seats were drenched with rain water. And then again it started raining. More calls. Same Question but a different answer. "We are reaching college in 30 mins!". Once in college, slowly students started coming in and in the end we had 10 people losing out for reasons better known to them.. But as for the remaining it was great fun .. excellent pictures and full on dhamal.!
