Beginning the second day session with Basaprabhu in full flow.


Rajshekar Kanagalli getting ready to jump


Oliver is very fortunate to have his batchmates take pride in winning the literary award. That award belongs to the batch of '79.




Late night music session


The one and only great Raman who brought us all together giving a small speech during the proceedings in the evening


Oliver being felicitated for Winning International Book of The Year Award from London Institute of Asia. Sharing the award with the batchmates was the most fullfilling part.


On the banks of the adjoining river.


Finally a group pic. Two guys still missing in it.


Dr Kaddu finally decided to make himself available for a pic


Discussing the border boundary


See the forest in the background


Half of them are sitting in Goa, the rest in Karnataka. Notice the boundary pole being guarded by Col Guruprasad


Relaxing on the Hillside.


Mahadesh, Chinawar and Ravi - Buddies then, buddies now


Another scenic view, with some of the guys in the background


Are these two doing a jig or heading in opp directions? Only Ravi Nyamgoudar can answer that question!


We have not seen Col Vidyasagar as happy as this pic reveals


Looks like Ramesh is getting ready for meditation!


That pole is the Goa-Karnataka boundary. That's why guys from Belgaum land in this area. Buy the booze in Goa and drink it in Karnataka!


Expressions!


Taking our chances on the edge of the cliff for a better look below.


Notice the badge on Raman's t-Shirt. Also notice the Man In Black - Nitin


Happy faces. Was nice to have Col Vidyasagar comee all the way from Delhi


Fourteen of the 26 who came for the Batch of '79 Reunion


Basaprabhu and Niranjan enjoying the setting


Two best boys, two bad boys and one angel!


Icemaker, landlord, lawyer and a professor


What on earth is Fazal looking at on his phone?


Soon after arrival at Delta Resorts, Kankumbi


Climbing uphill during a mid-morning walk in the forest.


These two guys, among others, put in a lot of eefort to make the reunion happen


The agriculture expert and the management expert - Subash and Chinawar


Don't underestimate the power of a lungi. It made us sing a total of a one hour song called 'Chennappa Chennagouda"


Another pic in the lagoon, this time Shirish is in it.


Another pic in the lagoon


On the banks of the Lagoon


No clue what these guys are looking at!


Oops! One guy can't fit onto the rock


Getting ready for a pic on the rocks


Another view of the waterfall


Another panoramic view of the river valley at the back of Delta Resorts.


Waterfall. Notice the round pit extreme left. It's been created by rock grinding against rock by the force of the water


There were no rocks in this lagoon. A bolt of lightning send a part of the cliffside into the water


View of the Kankumbi River From Where We Parekd - Delta Resorts


Good Place For a Swim! Unfortunately No One Did.


Mohammedi Barafwala - right on top - getting reday for a tumble in the jungle!
