Thank You

Thank you for being there for me. You are the air that I breathe. And when you had many chances to leave, you stuck by me during the hard times. I'm so happy that you are mine and because of you my life is fine. You stayed with me during the pain. You're the best person that I know and I love it when your love shows. You were there when I was rich and you stand by me when I fell in a ditch. You are there when I had a frown. Even though the many times I lied, you made me happy when I cried. Because of you I'm not dead and because of you I'm not on the streets. You gave me everything I have and you know that that's a lot. Even though all the times I did wrong, you stuck by me all this long….
We’ll be happy today, tomorrow and forever if only you believe me one more time…

Plan for 20th June 2009 Prabalgarh and Kalavantin point trek

Brief Introduction about Prabalgad / Kalwantin Durg:-

Height: 2300 ft
Grade: Prabalgad Easy, Kalwantin Medium
Time: ~3 hrs from Thakurwadi, Base Village
Location: Prabalgad is a fort located near Panvel.

Prabalgad fort is situated on northeast side of Panvel, on Mumbai-Pune road. One can see it from express highway as V-Shaped mountain. The left one is Kalwantin durg & on the right side is Prabalgad. But there is a dense forest on the way till the the top of fort Prabal. Historical references indicate that Freedom fighter Umaji Naik made a stay there in 1826.

Journey Details:-

The bus is scheduled at 07:00hrs from Panvel bus depot, and will drop us at Thakurwadi village around 07:30 Hrs. Please be sure about the timing. Its sharp 7 am. We will be getting down at the last stop.

Trek Details:-

08:00 Hrs -- Move towards Prabalgad fort from Thakurwadi village.
09:00 Hrs -- At Thakarwadi. 1st Halt. BreakFast Time.
11:00 Hrs -- On Top of fort. By taking right side route. Whereas left side one goes for Kalwantin

I guess 2 hrs for Fort Exploration, Lunch etc. is enough.

We will descend the fort around 13:30 Hrs.

15:00 Hrs -- At Thakarwadi
15:45 Hrs -- At Kalwantin Durg Pinnacle

Kalwantin durg pinnacle is tougher than Prabalgad. It has some rock cut steps intially and then few more but muddy path near the pinnacle. It will be slippery, but real adventure. Hopefully we are going to scale the pinnacle.

16:30 Hrs -- Descend from Kalwantin
18:00 Hrs -- At Thakurwadi ...

From here we will catch the last bus for Panvel, or take a rick if its available towards scheduling fata and henceforth to Panvel, have Snack/tea at Panvel.

Palchin mein baaten chali jaati hai hai,
Palchin mein raaten chali jaati hai hai,
Reh jaata hai jo sawera wo dhoondhe,
Jalta makaan mein basera wo dhoondhe,
Jaisi bachi hai waisi ki waisi, bacha lo yeh duniya,
Apna samajh ke apno ki jaisi utha lo yeh duniya,
Chitput si baaton mein jalne lagegi, sambhalo yeh duniya,
Katpit ke raaton mein palne lagegi, sambhalo yeh duniya,
Oh ri duniya, oh ri duniya, wo kahen hai ki duniya,
Yeh itni nahi hai sitaaro se aage jahan aur bhi hai,
Yeh hum hi nahi hai, wahan aur bhi hai,
Hamari hare k baat hoti wahin hai,
Hume aitraaz nahi hai kahin bhi,
Wo aayi zamil pe sahi hai,
Magar falsafa yeh bigad jaata hai jo,
Wo kehte hai…aalim yeh kehta wahan ishwar hai,
Faazil yeh kehta wahan allah hai,
Kamil yeh kahta hai,
Manzil yeh kehti tab insaan se ki,
Tumhari hai tum hi sambhalo yeh duniya,
Yeh ujde hue chand baasi charago,
Tumhare yeh kale iraado ki duniya,
Ohh ri duniya, oh ri duniya…
Hoo ri duniya…
