I’m connected

Reached here at BRT by noon yesterday and since then been having a gala time.

Since the resort is on a hill, overlooking at the plains below, I can manage a weak airtel signal. So currently I have my phone tied up on a tree (to get better signal of course) and the laptop is able to connect to the phone via bluetooth even though the phone is more then 10m away.

What can I say about this place ? I’m currently sleeping on a hammock with the laptop on my tummy. There are some 20 monkey’s around playing and few of them are curious about my laptop and want to have a peak. There are two camp elephants and they are day dreaming on my left and on the right the its all dense forests. Yesterday right after I landed here, a tiger walked into the camp. We heard lot of alarm calls from all the animals around and by the time I got to the place, the tiger had disappeared. Few of the guests managed to see it though.

Except for the fact that I feel a bit lonely here, this is the best thing I’ve done in my life. The people here are very friendly and since this is a gov organisation, they treat me like a king. It gets annoying too. They would not sit down while I am sitting and they won’t even let me carry my own bag.

Haven’t shot any pictures yet, but will do so today or tomorrow. More updates later, this monkey is eyeing my phone as I type this, so I better logout and grab my phone before the monkey gets to it.

    What are you doing about power? Or have you fixed a lightning rod to the tree as well, and charging laptop and cellphone with that? 🙂
