Last Friday we had a holiday, since it was midsummer’s day in Sweden. The weather forecast for Göteborg was not quite good. Rain and wind was predicted. And there are no more holidays for next few months. Just the right time to get out of the house, is what myself and couple of my colleagues decided. We went to this camping site called Duse Udde(www.duseudde.se), quite close to the town Säffle and the lake Vänern. The drive was quite good. Initially we bought all the stuff required for camping like tents, sleeping bags and groceries for cooking.

Last weekend, few of us went to a place called Gunnebo in Mölndal county on the outskirts of Göteborg. To be frank, we had no idea what the place was famous for apart from the castle. By the time we left Smyckegatan it was close to noon, and there was no sign of sun, though the weather prediction for the day was partly cloudy!

Last time I was in Sweden, it was quite cold to venture anywhere in Scandinavia. So, me and a group of my friends were looking at places in and around Spain or France where it was much better at that time of the year. At that time, we came across a very good deal from Ryanair. Return trip to Marseille, France from Gothenburg was 500 SEK (Around 3000 Rs). Best part was that the flight left Gothenburg on a friday at 7.30 PM and in return, reached Gothenburg by 7 PM on the sunday. What more can one ask?

Last Saturday myself, RC and Maverick went out for dinner. RC was jumping like Janagaraj ‘En pondaati ooruku poitaa’. And he was very keen to go somewhere. As in a day trip. We quickly googled and short listed on this place called Chunchi falls. Since the monsoon had been pretty good this time, we thought a waterfall should be interesting. Maverick dropped out as he had to take care of his baby daughter

Parssons Valley:
Before traveling to Ooty I asked my friends on the places to see in and around Ooty. Rather the popular tourist attractions. Once I gathered that information, I decided that these places can be visited at a later stage in life, when I would be claiming the educational cess 
Or better, when I don’t have the choice of places to visit: P
The main reason I chose Ooty was for this place called Parssons valley. Having heard from my friend Arun about this place, I didn’t want to miss it. When I mentioned this to the resort guys, they were bit surprised as no one goes there. Very good, I say! I hired a jeep since that’s the only vehicle that can go there.
