Finally got the time to blog again...

You guys must have been wondering what has happened to me. =) Well, I'm still well and kicking here in Bangalore. Like what people always say... "you will get to open your eyes when you go abroad... you will experience new things that you never knew..." Very true indeed in every aspect. However, more importantly, its how you handle such experiences that matters. Sometimes, you got to just change the way you see things to suit the new environment.

Talking about new environment... Let's get on the the minibus to go to Nandi Hills... let me show you the short day trip, I made together with the fellow singaporeans in Bangalore on 26th November (ya... I know... can almost considered as outdated news liao)...

It is a relatively small hill 1,478 meters above sea level, 65km away from the Bangalore city. The bus journey took about 1.5-2hrs.



When we reached the hilltop after the numerous turns and passed a really narrow entrance gate, we decided to find a cooling place with nice view to have our lunch as we came prepared with lotsa delicious food like fried mee hoon, curry chicken, apple pie and bread etc. No humans can resist such delicacies, not to mention our distant cousins - monkeys!







It was really quite scary to lunch when you got the whole family of hungry monkeys staring at your food. Luckily some dogs came along... also eyeing at our food... but at least they helped to chase away the monkeys. We did give these dogs some food for their effort.

Tried to do a pananormic view of the place but the photos did not stitch up that well (click on it to get enlarged view)... haha.. partly also because I took the left side in the afternoon and the nice sunset in the evening. =Þ

Basically its juz this kind of view, very steep vertical cliffs on the perimeter of the hill. Weather not that cooling up there because it is of higher ground. It's only until the evening time when the winds start to blow and the usual cool (cold) evening temperature drops in.

Here are some more of the photos...

Wonder how does this cow get here on the hill?!

And my favourite (love this kind of background sky)...


Please do visit the other blog for another entry where u get much better photos...
