Ooty with friends

Visit To Ooty with my Friends

It was early in the morning, all of us were getting ready to go to ………….Ooty, on 2nd of July, 2011. Ooty is a hill station so it is chilly and cold there. We all went in a van which included our friends. During the trip to Ooty, we had a wonderful time going up into the misty mountains; it was a wavy and bumpy ride. The scenery had plenty of trees, high mountains, and as the mountains were far they faded away and when they were near they looked clear. I relished the melodious songs we sang, many exciting games we played, and the wonderful songs we listened to.

Once we reached our destination, all of us were amazed by the sight. We saw blossoming flowers everywhere, brightened up in pure sunlight. It was freezing up there; it is a hill station after all. We found nature all around us, we saw red roses, bright yellow sunflowers, and some flowers were very different than the ones I knew. These flowers were as lovely as butterflies, flying across the clear sky. We even met a cute brown dog named, Maggie and a cute black dog which was caged, his name was Pappu.

The next day, all of us were shivering. We saw a horse whose name was Catherine. Her fur was as soft as a feather. She took us for a ride; it was so much fun, I even got to control the horse on my own. It was time to freshen up; we were going to the tea gardens. The lush, green tea gardens were a picturesque view. It was definitely a feast for my eyes. We went into the gardens it felt so windy when we were rushing through them. Our next visit was to the Sims Park. This park is 130 years old and had many kinds of trees, some old, tall, huge, and some trees were big enough to give shade to plenty of people. It was time to go back now.

It was our last day, we said good bye to the dogs, Catherine, and the generous people who made our stay comfortable. On our way back it rained cats and dogs! There were some patches, which had to be endured, but later on we watched few movies on the TV.
I really enjoyed this trip together with all my friends. We returned home safe and sound. Even though I have gone to Ooty a number of times, this was my first time with my close friends in Ooty!!!
