Aanganevadichi Jatra 06 Feb 2010






Third year in a row. Nearly 20 peoples. This time there was only one stranger. Avi's friend Mr. Raghu joined us. Later on he mingled so nicely that he was no more a stranger.

Mahesh and I went to village home earlier i.e. on Monday 1st Feb to prepare ourselves. Plenty of cleaning was done for the boys. First time we experienced 'Sankashti' on Tuesday in village home. We did very thrilling Aarti, good feeling.

All the boys reached home on Wednesday. Mahindra group had problem with their vehicle due to which they could not start and reach on time. On wednesday evening we had party in Mangesh Chavan's home in Golvan. Very nice arrangement. The trees that he planted year before are now grown up and looking well. He has made good surroundings. Friday afternoon we had another party.

All vehicles were prepared and ready to go at 04:25 in the morning for Devi darshan. Once we reached there we headed straight to Tula Bhar Queue. We had four passes. I did Tula Bhar of Mangesh and Sanjay. Bharadi Devi darshan this time was superb. Nice decoration all around. Devi was beautifully decorated. Very pleasant look. We all came out of temple by 06:30 in the morning.

This year again it was very good trip and hope to have many more trips to Baradi devil temple.
