Boating at Kappil

By around 10 in the morning .I (bhai) reached manu v's home ...and as usual i could find bomb ( bloody duffer didnt go to college today also ) and veni (who came from kotayam on the previous day) sitting and gulp whatever ever eatables they could find there , and with my arrival thing got a bit faster and within no time we emptied all the stuff ....

We couldn't find a place to go .. so we searched the net , but still couldn't find anything much interesting .. it was then tat i (bhai) came up with this idea to go to kapil which is a few kms off varkala railway station ....

we all got into the car and started off with out any further delay .......by the time we reached kazhakootam .. manu v started to feel sleepy , so gautham took the wheel ...along with it came a shift in the music being played ....things moved on to rock and heavymetal ....(ohh the damn sound blew my ear drums off)......but some how all 3 of us ( veni manu v and myself) managed to sleep amidst this so called music...... while bomb kept screaming ..."eda patikalle... uranagteda ... enzhunte irkeda . "hehe .. pavam vilichatalate no use ... his cry went unheard.....
we weren't much sure about the way from varkala railway station onwards ..so we stopped by and asked for the route .. .. we went as per the directions given ,only to find a horrid road , gud LORD it was one of the worst tracks tat we had come across till date......and with kappil approaching green pastures began to spring up , bomb as usual asked for the camera , but to our disappointment we Left it back home ....Bomb lost all his mood ..the guy who was driving with lot of enthusiasms til then suddenly shifted moods to tat of an art film hero ....after almost 7 km ride from the railway statoinf we finally reached kapil . .

where we were welcomed by the site of an empty boating area .. our initial doubts of where they still have boating is this area was overcome by our site of a person at the ticket counter and a few life jackets hung to dry ....

the damn place was a mess yarrr ..... all we were left with were .. a few row boats ...

We booked one for an hour and started off .. it took us some time to get used to rowing the boat .. but we did mange it well ..veni and bomb did most of the rowing while i (bhai) and manu v slouched back to have a splendid view of the backwaters around...we did manage a few flicks with manu v's mobile camera ..but we did really miss our cybershot ..


but in total the whole boating trip was a real gud xperience...
