    Wohoo!! An absolutely thrilling and out-of-this-world experience... Exotic location that was absolutely scenic and had an aesthetic charm in the twilight, complete with a moon lit lake, bonfire and a bunch of hyper charged people dancing on the tunes of an awful choice of songs being churned out from some not-so-good speakers. But all in all it was wholesome fun!!!

    This is altogether new experience for me. Happily spending time with friends, Kayaking, campfire, Special tea by Aamer, Food items (Cake, fruit custard, biryani, chips, cookies, choclates and so on), Walk/ trek around the place, Music, dance, watching lunar Eclipse...all this near a serene lake with no crowd around. One of the best ways to welcome New year. Special thanks to Diya for Organising this event and thinking about something quite different and Rama for Kayak.

    Please dont expect too much. This is not something like Ahala or Treasure Island kind of thing. Its just a different and simple new year celeberations among nature with some light ( read torch light), music (read car music), DJ (read Diyanat), food (read shared and home cooked), Drinks ( Read Cool Drinks and Hot Tea?) and a awesome company of good friends

Who attended?

  • 32 attendees
    •  A True Concept ... was made successful by a great bunch of people. To thanks and name a few :-) Sameer Sheikh for lightening the darkness with his HaRddd Work on Campfire, Aamer for cutting the chilling night with strong..hot tea, Vibha for the delicious home-made cake, Mr Jagdish and family for the pleasant surprise with the spicy biryani and the Kayak man Rama. Lastly to all those great bunch of people who brought their charming smile,enthusiasm and zeal. Yes a New Year can be celebrated without "the Bottle" and we have been doing this since our childhood on the terrace of our house in our every family get together with "a Bottle" of soft drinkssss and pulpy  !!! The difference was made by the serene lake and warm arrangements from Padmaja who took all care to check the event gelled with time and mood. Nevertheless the Hangover is still on .. not because the feeling was chilling and grand but I am still thinking and talking about that night !!!!! 
    •  Wonderful !!!! NEW YEARS EVE + Full Moon Day + Beside the lake + Kayaking + Trekking + Music + Food & Good Croud.

       It has been my first trek with the GHAC. And I must say it was absolutely beautiful and great. The idea to spend time in nature under a full moon, and to walk the wild and paddle in the lake was a very unique idea. I look forward to being with the group on future treks and at least for once a month. only thing that would have made it even better would be to use live music around the camp fire rather than the loud speakers of the car. would be a great idea if someone can share their musical talents with the group next time.

       Zarra Hatke New Year Celebrations. The weather was fresh and cool, the moon above was at its full glory. Had a blast with camp fire, music, dance, walks and kayaking.. and some delicious food and sweets. Yes... a new year can be celebrated without the bottle. 
    •  It was completely different and real fun :) 
    •  It was awesome experience i n ever had before.Thanks for organizing such event. I really enjoyed with kayaking
