Matheran trip

I took Dadduna and Mammunya to Matheran for a couple of days, before Diwali holidays. The idea was to chill. And chill we did!!

We took it easy after reaching our hotel... it was a heritage hotel. Everything was heritage...including the bathrooms, fans..... :-)

Dadduna went to fight with the hotel people for a room change, while I did some sketches


I am getting better at it everyday


I can now draw human caricatures, with eyes, nose and lips in the right places :-)


We met the 'Master' family at Matheran and they were cool! Thats me with Priyanka, Airyaman, and Arnavaz aunty!


Priyanka and me bonded quite well!

The families did a couple of points together.... we went to Echo Point, where me and Priyanka yelled a lot! I called our Dora and you know what! She responded!


I called for Boots also...

Dadduna also acted as my horse. The good part about this horse was that he listened to my instructions quite well. I just had to pull his ears for getting his attention. And he sang my favourite songs like 'Nagaada baja'



I took a brief nap also on the way....


Me, Mammunya and Dadduna



Day 2 was a little disappointing. It was raining cats and dogs, and monkeys as well!!
I had to sit in my room, sip tea, and generally relax



Good that Dadduna carried his laptop. I watched my favourite 'Blue Doggy' CD


And Mammunya read me a couple of good stories. I especially like the story about the old lady in China...

The return journey was very cool & misty! And the view was terrific. We took a couple of breaks enroute...

Saw a couple of waterfalls....
Its not what you think!
I was just playing with the water :-)
And guess what, when we stopped for lunch, who did we meet again! The 'Master family'!! We had a great time in the play area....
Post lunch, I slept off in the car, and hence the story ends here.
