RSS FeedCrossing the river Tunga
Apr 16, 2008 Chikkamagalur, Karnataka, Summer, Travel, Weekend Getaway
River Tunga. We had to cross the river. And we had three options –
1. By bus over the bridge.
2. Using a hanging bridge which was half a kilometer away.
3. By walk through knee deep water
And we chose the last option.
Place: Hariharapura, 15 KMs from Sringeri in Chikkamagalur district.
People were busy washing their clothes, bathing.
He saw me. Stopped his work for a moment. Smiled at me & continued with his chores.
Crossing the river was quite an adventure. Trying not to get our clothes wet & along with carrying the camera. Though it was knee deep, currents were pretty strong.

nice pictures and to cross the riven in knee deep water will be a real thrill and ofcourse managing your camera that is much tuffer task but u have taken a calculated risk in going with camera and come out successfully
be care full yar your camera is master piece and you must preserve it safe
