A Day @ Karperwadi : LiveBand Unplugged

12 Dec happened to be a day out of LotusLive and CIO team at Karpewadi.. It was great day to start with.. and all of us were looking forward to exciting trip.

The whole team had great enthu to start with .. Also my darling Samanyu was travelling on his first beach trip, so he was also pretty excited for his first "beach picnic". Also Lotuslive team were eagerly waiting to meet their "password" friend. If you don't know the story of "password".. ask LotusLive team :-)

The whole team was Liveband to say the least.. All of us started with Antakshari . Sachin, Bharat, Saumya .. I don't recall the name of one song , but it must had been sung for atleast 20 times.. After getting bored with his mom and dad, Samanyu made his fast friends.. Bharat "Bhaiya" and Saumya "Didi"..

When we reached there, ever smiling Anurag with his CIO team were already there. All of us had drinks. After the lunch, it was time to start enjoying Karpewadi.. the greenary, cottages, coconut trees, with hammocks and the majestic Arabian sea crashing in your backyard.

The area was particularly pretty clean .. which I liked the most. I donned the cap of playing games with Kids : Samanyu, Sirish, Anaya and Anushka.

Anushka , Anaya and Samanyu started to play "pittu pittu" with Ananth, Dhanshree. One was taking the aim and other were hiding behind trees, running in all directions there like small bees and then arranging the pittu. Ananth as always gave enough time to these little stars to arrange their pittu.

I tried helping kids to play baby golf with sandpit and asked them to put the ball in that pit. And wonder who really put the ball in.. It was "Anaya".. Anurag's youngest daughter.

There were other games like football, dodgeball , half tip cricket which we all enjoyed.The dodgeball was pretty fascinating one, thanks to MJ who had a swirling arm hitting everyone in opponents team :-). There was halftip cricket where Ketki tried her bowling assisted by her little Umpire.

In afternoon, all of us took the tea break relaxing outside the cottage. The team mates were enjoying hummock with hot sip of tea.

The beach cricket.. again Mrityunjay was bowling his heart out.
Abhay was pretty controlled on his length. and then came Anurag and what I see, that he is lefty. I was feeling nice of being him lefty.. :-) Samanyu had a company to share with on cricket.

The sun with horizon on the back was beauty to watch.. It was scenic, pretty clean and vast strech of sand as far as I could see.


The adventures of the team will continue .. See you in next post.. Till then enjoy.
