सिंहावलोकन - २०१५



आज २०१५ संपणार! नवीन वर्ष सुरु होण्यापूर्वी एकदा सिंहावलोकन करणे गरजेचे म्हणून हा खटाटोप!

जानेवारी राजगड वारी बालेकिल्ल्यावर तंबू ठोकून राहण्याचे स्वप्नपूर्ती! मग एक छोटी roadtrip ज्यात आम्ही गेलो सुधागड, सुरगड, अवचित आणि घोसाळा…
फेब्रुवारी मध्ये खूप फेऱ्या मुंबईला… ट्रेक म्हणावे तसे काही नाही: सिंहगड आणि तोरणा, परत एकदा राजगड आणि यांना जोडणारा राजगड तोरणा…
मार्च मध्ये खूप वेळा सिंहगड… आणि एक लांब वरची roadtrip बदामी, पट्टदक्कल आणि ऐहोळे.
एप्रिल मध्ये खूप उनाडक्या आणि परत खूप वेळा सिंहगड… एवेरेस्ट बेस कॅम्प वर झालेल्या भूकंपाने झेनिथ ओडिसिस पण हादरले!
मे मध्ये एक मूर्खपणा (जो मला आयुष्यभर भोवणार आहे अशी) औरंगाबाद ची roadtrip!
मग एक हिमालयन ट्रेक. हिमालयातून परतल्यावर २४ तासात सह्याद्रीच्या भेटीला कोकणदिवा ट्रेक.
जुन मध्ये विश्रामगड (कुर्डूगड) आणि अजून एक मूर्खपणा आणि दिल्लीवारी… मग रायरेश्वर वर धुक्यात हरवण्याचा अनुभव…
जुलै मध्ये संतोषगड आणि वारुगड, अंधारबन, आणि चावंड कुकडेश्वर
ऑगस्ट मध्येनाशिक ची roadtrip आणि जुन्या मित्रांची झालेली नवीन ओळख
मग एक  eye opener! आणि मंगळगड.
सप्टेंबर मध्ये पुनश्च: कळसुबाई, गोरखगड, मल्हारगड,
ऑक्टोबर मध्ये राजगड आणि रायगड
नोव्हेंबर ची सुरुवातच हरिश्चंद्रगडावर,  जीवधन नाणेघाट, मोरगिरी आणि घनगड तैलबैल चा सोलो राइड आणि ट्रेक.
डिसेम्बर मध्ये गुप्त सह्याद्री ला एक भेट आणि पुन्हा एकदा सुधागड…

हे वर्ष खूप काही शिकवून गेले, आपली माणसे आपली नसतात हे हि कळाले, परकी माणसे परकी नसतात हे हि अनुभव आले.

४ महिन्याच्या depression नी सगळी राख रांगोळी झाली आहे.
उद्या पासून नवा डाव! आयुष्य नव्यानी सुरु करायचे.
अपेक्षा काही नाहीत आता आयुष्यकडून... फक्त पाठीवर हात ठेऊन लढ म्हणा!!!

Riki - The dog and Me -the Human

A promise that will last forever...  It was third week of November 2003. I was recovering from relapsed Malaria and pneumonia and had returned to my parent’s place from Navi Mumbai. My then husband turned up one early evening and surprised me with a gift. The gift was a cute little black Labrador retriever puppy of less than 3 months of age. (November 20, 2003) I always wanted a dog but my parent’s understanding of responsibility had always denied acceptance of a dog. We had fish and birds but a dog was too much. I had dreamt that when I will grow up I will get myself a German shepherd and my ex-husband always had dreamt of having a black lab. So obviously he picked up a black lab. When the puppy came home, my first reaction was, "ohh my baby is here!" Day one On day one, this pup sat near the chair which was like ten times his size, six months later he found that the space beneath this chair can be his hideout when a bath is called upon, and a year lat...

How got Leh'd Part Three (10 August - 12 August 2014)

10th August:  It was a good morning as it I could get up leisurely and get ready. We packed all luggages and kept in the guest house’s cloak room. (There were barely two big backpacks technically.) Today, I was well prepared with motion sickness tablet. We set ourselves in the SUV and picked up 2 Austrian girls Viktoria and Christa. They were on long vacation to India. We withdrew some money as we did not have any bookings made at the Nubra Valley. Our driver Dorje was a middle aged man, who claimed to be an ex-army. Jolly good fellow. He was fun to chat and seemed to be experienced as he knew how to handle 4 girls. Khardung La is barely 40 km from Leh. And most of the road to Khardung La overlooks Leh city. Shanti Stupa looked glorious in soft sunlight. Now, we were gaining altitude rapidly and I was haunted by the memories of Kargil war and Formula One car at Khardung La. Every time, we drove past the Army Officers, a feeling of regret, shame and pride kept revolving in my...

In search of footsteps of the Great Shivaji Maharaj - Umbarkhind

February 1661: It was 2nd of February and the Mughal Army was marching fast towards the Konkan region from Pune. The army consisted of Horses, Bulls, Elephants, small canons and men. They were equipped for a full fledged war anytime. Their head, Kartalab Khan, was a fierce Uzbek warrior. Trusted by the Mughal Emperor, Aurangzeb, he was sent to the Pune region to assist Shahista Khan to wage war against the Great Shivaji. Kartalab Khan was assisted by Kachhap, Jasawant Kokate, and the lady sardar RaiBaghan. The army had reached Lohgad and Khan had decided to take the pass between Lohgad and Visapur to enter Konkan. The spies informed Kartlab Khan that the Great Shivaji was resting at Kuruwande Village, roughly 4 miles west to the Lohgad. Khan instantly jumped at the opportunity to siege the Great Shivaji and gain higher ranks at the courts of the Emperor. Thus, the army changed its course and turned towards to Kuruwande. As they reached Kuruwande, they found that the informers ...
