Masinagudi is one of our top picks for a weekend getaway from Bangalore. And children will love it. Located between the wildlife parks of Masinagudi and Bandipur, it is an excellent place to spot wildlife. So if you are into trekking, bird watching, safaris, elephant rides and nature walks, then Masinagudi is a great choice. The drive from Bangalore is about 5 to 6 hours and the roads are pretty good for the most part. More information and details on stay options at www.whitesky.in.
Have you ever wondered how the food we eat is produced? Have you ever thought if the food you are eating is just a bunch of chemicals put together or is naturally produced? It is not just about being aware of the ecosystem but getting closer to the nature, experiencing it and being a part of it. This organic farm, Green acres is a place I would personally recommend to each and everyone with a soft corner of nature! Excellent outdoor camping site, you can also try out farming. But let me warn you, this is not so called “fun camping”. Here you have tents as they are suppose to be and not with air conditioner fixed! And yes if you are interested in trying your hand in farming, be ready to get to soiled and sweaty! But staying here is not just about farming. The feeling of having a star studded clear sky above you when you fall asleep literally counting the stars is beyond explanation! But what I loved the most was waking up in morning with the sound of birds chirping and cool breeze caressing you. Or was it a ride on tractor? Or the visit to village? I am still undecided on what I enjoyed the most! You won’t get a three course meal here but the food provided here is simple and made from organically grown vegetables and crops. And believe me it was out of the world. all of us ate almost double our capacity! You can go for various activities as well. Rock climbing, nature walks, bird watching, star-gazing are few which will interest you for sure. The company of Simba, the dog …
Summer weekend getaways in Ontario are one of my favourite things. And they are even better when you can enjoy the serenity of the country less than an hour from home. On July 16, 2010 I drove about 45 minutes northwest of Toronto, into the Caledon Region, also known as the Hills of Headwaters area. My first stop was at the historic Millcroft Inn in the picturesque village of Alton, a former knitting mill from 1881 that has been turned into an upscale hotel and spa. General Manager Steve Yates showed me around this impressive property after a nice breakfast in the glass enclosed alcove that overlooks the magnificent waterfall. Continuing with the historic theme I then visited another signature destination in Alton: the Alton Mill — which came into being as the Beaver Knitting Mill in 1881, also produced longjohns for WWI soldiers and later become a rubber factory in 1935. The Western Rubber Company even manufactured condoms for Canadian servicemen during World War II. After it was shut down in 1982 the mill became vacant and fell into disrepair until local entrepreneurs Jeremy and Jordan Grant purchased it in 1990 and lovingly restored it back to life over many years. Today the Alton Mill houses 20 studios with more than 30 artists, a café, various event venues for all sorts of special events as well as the Turbine Room Heritage Exhibit with machinery and artifacts from the late 19th and early 20th century. During the late afternoon I headed to the picturesque …
