Xmas on Unwind Isle

December 27th, 2007  |  Published in Adventure, India, Nature & Wildlife, Photography, Travel  |  10 Comments

A week or so ago, we went for a team lunch to a place called Unwind Island some­where on the Outer Ring Road. Don’t ask me why they call it that, I couldn’t really fig­ure out as there wasn’t an island in sight :)

A few days ago, on the Xmas break, as we were being rowed across a river to a lit­tle island called Amgol, my first thought was: “Now this is the real unwind island!”

Unwind Isle

And it did turn out to be just that — a time to relax and unwind. But no trav­el­ogue for now, I’m going to hope­fully catch up on all my pend­ing travel pieces soon. I think I need a good 2–3 days of pure unin­ter­rupted bliss to com­plete every­thing! I’ve been ter­ri­bly slack lately with dif­fer­ent things tak­ing pri­or­ity, but I do have the Coorg and Paro (Bhutan) pieces com­ing up.

    Wait­ing for the trav­el­ogues and most of all, he trav­el­ogue of Amgol — its stun­ning I think.
