Bhavani Island!

Finally....!! I have been wanting to go to Bhavani Island for the last 3 years. Today, I got a chance to be there. The island is very crowded in karthika masam that you feel reluctant to go there unless you have a big group of your own. On the rest of the days, there are too few people on the island doing things you really wont be interested to know. So, that makes it not a safe place for people like us to go and have fun in those days. I was aware that today is the last sunday of karthika masam, but din't really have it on my mind in the morning while having a lazy sunday breakfast until someone told me that they were going to "Bhavani Island" for vanabhojanalu(A social concept where people gather at a place and have some fun filled activities and lunch, preferably under trees in some garden). Whoever knows me in the whole of Vijayawada, I bet is aware of the longing I have to go to the Island. There was a gush of thoughts in my head at that very moment i heard those words. I went straight to Vijay and told him that I want to go to the Island today. One has to be fortunate to have a special someone in their lives who cares about your feelings and is willing to make things happen, just for you. We immediately got ready and just went ahead to Punnami resorts. There was a line where we had to wait for almost an hour in the scorching Sun to get into a boat to take us to the Island. I had the two best men of my life with me(Vijay and my dad) and my wonderful little daughter, none of them showing even a slightest discomfort on their face for what they are going through for me, just because I wanted to experience going there. Not that it is one great place, but just that I want to have that place checked in the list of my visiting places. It is a feeling that can only be understood when felt than being said. After reaching the island, my daughter had a great time. She enjoyed the open air, lots of place to run around, many kids whom she watched play, playing a few small rides... She also enjoyed the boat ride to and from the Island. It was truly a wonderful experience for me today!
