Nice Holiday!!


Hi there!! I had a nice , pleasant Gudipadwa holiday. It was as if we had gone on a long drive on the countryside viewing small villages , rocky mountains etc. We went to two places - Woods Resort and Karnala Bird Santuary on Panvel - Goa Highway. It was beautiful. Woods Resort is surrounded by the greens of nature and majestic mountains, where the whiff of air brings an unparalleled sense of freshness, where the tranquility is broken only by the harmonius chirp of a passing bird, where you are closest with the wonders of nature a perfect blend of nature's gifts and the comforts of the modern era, a holiday destination that rejuvenates your body, mind and soul.
Just a short drive outside Mumbai Karnala Bird Santuary is on the Mumbai-Pune Highway to Goa, is the densely forested Karnala Bird Sancturay, a pleasant surprise away from Mumbai's concrete jungle. Karnala is a tiny sanctuary, barely 4.8 sq km, home to over 150 resident bird species and about 37 types of avian migrants.Its a different story that we could hardly spot any birds. Basically you need to go with binoculars and start early in the mroning at around 4am!! I just realized there are so many places around Mumbai which are so beautiful and make good tourist spots like - Alibaug , Chiploon , Ganapatipule , Dapoli , Ratnagiri etc. I am waiting to go to Ganapatipule!! Its got beautiful beaches . Infact all the destinations have beautiful beaches to swim in!! You can view my snaps of Woods Resort here - Woods Snaps!!

Such a great place you visited!...Thanks for sharing the pictures!

Indeed there are several places to visit around here...I've been to Pune only once (for your wedding party) and I've only come close to visit Alibaug, but the trip got cancelled :(

I LOVE to go swimming (it's so relaxing and it's great exercise, too!) but unfortunately, since I've been in India I have hardly even seen a swimming pool. I might have to start planning a trip one of these days...when's the next holiday? :)

Hey I too love swimming! Although the last time I swam was in 2001! We are planning to go to 2 places in the month of JUly-August when it starts raining. One is Silvassa which is 2.5 hr drive from Mumbai. Rajeev swears by the fact that its beautiful. He has been there a couple of times when he was working in Gujrat. Second place is Duke' Nose Khandala , to be under the waterfalls and do some trekking!! Want to join ?
