From the Heights of Akasa Ganga .........



              Yes, you got it right. This is a travelogue. What a weird title, you may wonder. I agree with it, but there is a reason. This is the first part of the write up on the places I visited in the month of April, 2009. There was some ‘unplanned element’ in each of the visits, so it made them all the more memorable. Now let’s move on to the travelogue proper.


Lord Hanuman who beckons if we were to reach Tirumala by foot

                If you thought that Akasa Ganga were the Milky Way and presumed I were an astronaut, please be prepared to stand/ sit corrected! I visited the Akasa Ganga falls on the Tirumala when I had been there. It happened like this. At a very short notice, I had to accompany a newly- wed couple and a couple of elders on a pilgrimage to the Tirumala. I’m not talking about the bottlenecks or travails in arranging for a cottage, shuttling around for food, etc, because these can be expected of any short- notice trip. I’ll write about other trivia which may interest you.
