Coorg Trip Planning

here we are into the week when the road trip to a 5 day holiday in coorg begins.
with 2 days to drive to and 2 fro, its gonna be as much time on the road as lingering in coorg.
stopping at dandeli for the night on the first days drive from mumbai, is sounding really exciting. to wake up in a forest lodge, ambling through the dandeli and anshi forest to reach mangalore for the second night's stopover. mangalore to bhagarmandala (where linger is) is just a short hop for the third days morning.
was looking at a lot of homestay options in coorg, abundant on the web, but when Vishu sent me a link to LINGER, found it too full of promises to look beyond. will write review of it here later after the trip.
lots to do in coorg and a place to "do just nothing" in LINGER, the world is wide open.
friends from 60kph are planning to assemble at sakleshpur, 100 kms away, after their sunfeast marathon run.. that sounds great.. will go meet them up or invite them over.

looking up for stopovers and planning for coorg, came across this interesting resort off karwar, too bad its closing today for monsoons and we ll have to target it some other time. next wud have to be a kerala trip, karwar makes for a good midpoint. :-)

21st - mum-dandeli
22nd - dandeli-mangalore
23rd to 27th - chill@coorg
28th - drive to hubli
29th - hubli-mumbai
