My Trip

First day, we left Hospet on 23rd Oct, we continued our journey towards Kushalnagar. On the way we saw a hanging bridge & a statue of Vivekananda-ji in a garden which was full of flowers and plants.

We reached Kushalnagar on 7pm. On the way to our hotel we stopped our car at Vishal Mega Mart because my brother forgot to bring his suitcase.

We shopped clothes for him then continued towards our hotel Treebo. On that day it was raining so heavily we couldn’t even see the road, then there we purchased 2 umbrellas and went to another restaurant to have dinner.

I had fried rice, jeera rice, dal and went to the hotel and had a good sleep. Next day, we woke up, got ready to go to my school. We met an uncle who was going to show us around Coorg and nearby places. So first we went to our school COPS. It was a very fun and nice, residential school. Then we went to another school for my brother’s school KALS. It was also good for sports. Then after a two-hour journey we went to Talakaveri. On the way, we stopped our car to have lunch, and then we reached Talakaveri.

It is the birthplace of Kaveri. Then we went to another temple near it called “Bhagamandala.” In this temple, we have to wash our legs in the river before entering the temple, and we saw where three rivers join. Because we saw three rivers joining—the three rivers were Kaveri, Kanike, and Sujyoti—it was a good experience; also, there were tiny fish in the river. Then we were returning to Kushalnagar. On the way, we saw a glass bridge and thought, “Let’s go,” but it was closed—our bad luck. Next, we stopped our car in front of a garden and thought about entering the garden.

Then we changed our minds not to go. Then it started raining, and we got wet, so we went to a cafe named “Big Cup.” I had coffee and French fries. Then we saw many coffee makers in different sizes there. We went to have dinner at another restaurant and had our dinner. Then we went to another hotel or cottage named Dubare Inn. Our cottage room was beside the river, so we could hear the sound of the river—it was so satisfying to hear.

Then we slept. Next day, we went to the Dubare Elephant Camp. There we saw so many elephants; one of the elephants’ names was Prashanth. By coincidence, even my uncle’s name is Prashant. In that camp, there are 30 elephants. Then we purchased a fruit basket for our house. Then we went to the Golden Temple; we saw many shops there. Then we went to lunch—we had good food. Then we went back to our cottage, took a rest, watched T.V., and played UNO.

with my mummy and bro. Then at night, we had a pleasant sleep. Next day, we woke up, packed our luggage, took a bath, and got ready. And we started our journey towards Hospet. Then we slept in the car. We stopped our car at Purohit Hotel and had dal khichdi, curd rice, and chapati with bhindi and sev tamatar sabzi. I think everyone should visit that hotel once. Then we finally came back to Hospet. It was a safe and joyful trip with my parents.
