TRIP TRIP TRIP....

Scene at C&RM team:

A : Pleeeease try n make it, it ll be fun...

B: Uh ! ho.. I am busy tat weekend.. If only it was the week after this :(

C: Aah... sorry, have some work :(

D: .......

E: .......


Blah blah... After a lot of coxing around, we finally managed to have a bunch of 25 enthusiasts set out on a day trip to Club Cabana... Sharp orders from the Fun Committee were to reach EGL campus at dot 7 to board the bus... However hard I tried, I couldn't be the first one to be there ! But I was glad, I wasn't the last one either ;).. Thanks to Avinash and Alok !

So we set off...
The bus ride was amazing.. Antakshari and Dumb Charades... Mehul at his best, and , Kurian and Mahesh, all set to make it tougher for our team.. But we weren't to give up so fast ;) An enjoyable bus ride brought us to the venue - CLUB CABANA.. An amazing resort - coupled with water games ! It's a rare combination, and quite an innovative idea, I must admit. So the gang did some pet-pooja (read in Hindi), and set off with full energy for a game of cricket. But yours truly, bugged them for sometime with a game called BANG ! And boom we were out in the field... Two games straight, and (uhooo uhooo) MY TEAM WON BOTH THE GAMES :D Lot of sledging, BAD UMPIRING, and cheering - it was fun..

Time for a game of bowling.. Though not as much fun as cricket, we managed to do some job, and my team lost.. (Maybe thats the reason why I didn't enjoy it. lol) Following this, we went for a game of volley ball.. What a match that was - we were luv - 12 at one point of time, we fought hard and won a losing battle ! thats called PERSEVERANCE....

Time for lunch... hogged so well that I had to wait for an hour before going into the water. There was nothing stopping me once I was in. I tried all my swimming skills against the waves of the wave pool, tried all the banana rides, the jacuzzi and the most boring lazy river too.. hehe..

Water sports can get really tiring.. 2 hours of it and I was almost sloshed with all the water around. So i decided to stop the water-play and move on to a game of Badminton. Aaah, i won there too... YIPPEE...


By now, it was time to pack up... Tired, and worn out faces climbed the bus, and
it was a quiet ride back. The silence was killing me... Slowly we got all the lazy ones active, and joined a game of mimicking the team members.. This was good fun..

All good things come to an end, and so did this one, but it has definitely left a good memory in the minds of all who've attended.

THREE cheers to Mehul and Vinita for organising it !!
