As my age is increasing, I'm realizing the value of an outstation trip. It refreshes you completely, and relaxes your mind.

This year, I was trying to go somewhere. But, I was not sure where!

In my office, lot of people were going for vacations, by taking around 10 days leaves. I was like, is it me only working? I also have a life. That was the trigger point. I also sent email about my leaves. I made my plans later. 

Few months back, I talked to my cousin brother Raman. I casually told him that let me know once you plan your trip. I will also go. He actually reminded me and asked me to come with him. He gave few options like Leh Ladakh, Coorg, Sikkim etc. I talked to Kanika, she was not interested in going with him. She is always like this. We always wanted to go with some other family, when other family gets ready, she finds some or other issues. They are not of our age, their kids are not of our kid's age. I'm not comfortable talking to them, bla bla...

I was like, ok, you make the plan. I told her the same. That, its always good to go with some other family, and they are our relative. Come on. I told Raman bhaiya NO, with some excuse.

Few days later, when our plan was not taking shape. I forcefully made my plan with Raman bhaiya, convinced Kanika. And, our planning started.

Raman bhaiya told me straight that I spend full. He is a rich business man, self made man. I also had my budget. But, I thought, lets do it. I was ready to match their expenses.

I made all the planning. This time, Kanika did not help me a single bit.

I booked the resorts, booked the flight. Our booking was just 4-5 days before.

The Trip Planning

Our flight was on 22nd June 2022, where we all were going on same day, same flight. But, I extended my trip a bit. Raman bhaiya was coming back on 26th June, I was coming on 28th June. It was quite a long trip.

The plan was to spend 3 days in Coorg, and 3 days in Ooty. But, I booked resort in Coorg only. I thought of plan later for rest of the days.

Due to heavy bookings, we could book only 2 days resort. I could find another day in the same resort. So, I booked that. Raman bhaiya told me that he will spend rest of the days in Coorg, relaxing in some good resort. We spent roughly 1.5 hours searching for their resort online. Finally, they booked a really expensive resort. 

Coorg Wilderness, with around 1.10L for 2 days only. He thought a bit, but then he said, its OK.

I booked the initial transfer taxi as well.

Here we Go

Daksh, Bhavika were excited. It was Bhavika's first flight. She was hugging me tightly each time, I tell her that we are going in an aeroplane.

And, here we go. Its 22nd June 2022. I booked a taxi for airport through some local vendor, it came on time. We had 3 checkin bags, 2 handbags. I also took one small bag for printouts, vouchers , IDs etc.

6:35 AM was the time, we left home. I parked all of our bikes inside our house last night. We had 3 of them now :)
