The office team organized a trip to Malshej so that they could let their hair down. I joined for the day (the rest stayed overnight) cause I too needed a break. The drive thru' the "Ghats" was very scenic with myriad waterfalls, lush green hills and nary a soul in the wilderness.We checked into our very "maharashtrian" hotel and settled into a "tipple" without losing any time. While we raised a toast to our good health, we gorged on "bhajias, paneer chilly and chicken chilly" and indulged in some inane banter. After everyone had agreed that they'd got the customary "buzz" in the head:-), we trudged to the rock face along the road, seeking a sufficiently large waterfall to "neutralize" the buzz in our heads. We found one alright but it was so bloody cold, I actually staggered out with my body jerking as if I was going thru' the withdrawal symptoms seen in a "wasted drug addict":-). After we had gotten well and truly frozen and wet, I called it a day as it was almost 4pm and time to leave. I got my driver to drive me back home as I snoozed fitfully. All in all a very nice day with office friends
