This trip was done during the summer vacation of 10th standard. This place is located in the state of Karnataka. It is famous for steel plant and the city is located in town of shimoga and the distance of 158 kms from the state capital Bangalore. We mainly tried to visit that place to attend some marriage ceremony. It is mainly derives it name from Bhadra river that flows through the city. We started from Chennai city, since it was a sudden trip, we started with 10 members that included 3 kids and am one among them and the parents and other relatives like uncle, aunt were the remaining members who traveled.
This trip happened way back in the year 2007 or 2008 am not sure about the exact year. We somehow managed to get seats for Chennai to Bangalore in the unreserved compartment. After getting down in Bangalore, we need to take another train to reach Bhadravati. There were few more relatives who joined with us in the same train, somehow we adjusted and provided place for them also. We were not aware that, they were also our relatives, until that date. May be I might have not visited the functions they might have attended or the vice versa. After all, we don't get much time to visit particular person in their homes. Meeting them in these kind of functions is the only possibility.
So, we got introduced to them, it was a habit of kids getting along with kids of similar age group, rather than elderly people. we got introduced to three of our sisters, they were our cousins by relation. One was too much elder to us, but still she mingled with us. One of her was just 2 or 3 years elder than us and the last one was some 5 or 6 years younger to us. We had developed a good bonding by that travel. But again, from Bangalore, we had a few hours of travel to Bhadravati and reached the place by evening, attended the reception and stayed in that place. We enjoyed the climate, water and food.
Next day we attended marriage, had some fun events and then managed to stay along. But, the return train to Bangalore was filled too much, as the starting point was from some other point and not bhadravati. We struggled to find place to sit, especially elderly people struggled a lot. At that point of time, there was a hatred between two states and they did not want to provide seats in train to our state people. After, the tiresome journey, we reached Bangalore and from there another tiresome journey we reached our place. Wherever you might go, enjoy and do whatever, but getting back to home is somewhat special.
