This is one of weeknd trip we had on 24th Oct. I was busy with new office and lot of personal things. So could not pen down on time.

It was another sudden plan andas usual no one was sure how many will join? So it was finally me(R15), Abhisek(p200), Chocky n Amitav (Karizma). We started around 8.30 AM from BTM layout behind our original schedule of 6.30 AM. You need to take Kanakpura road to visit this place. Its 100km from Bangalore. I had a short stop on Soham’s place and then we are off. Its single road and you find many notorious driving. Be extra careful as it passed through lot of villages and traffic is out of question. Anyway ride was awesome. We reached Mekadatu and unlike others we enjoyed the fish fry as we did nt had enough of food at morning. In total we all 4 had 22 fish fries and 5 omlettes!!

Mekadatu means leap goat. According to local stories here a goat jumped over Kaveri river(the narrow section). Though it look far from true story. Its the river cut across huge rocks and with time it has cut hole in the rock. U can see water running under a rock. You need to take a special bus to reach the place from the main place. For more details please google :)

Now some pic time. Will upload more once I get my hand on them.
