Very recently I had been to the Sinhagad fort. Actually we had a very
casual trek up to the fort (we took a hour and a half) and it was more
a picnic than a trek. The thing I would remember most is the wind at
the famous "wind point". Only once before in my life have I felt so
much wind.It was actually difficult to walk against the wind. We tried
to hold our wind-cheaters open like wings and it was almost impossible
to walk forward. In fact I believe, at a particular instant I was
leaning against the wind, inclined at at least 30 degrees. And as
always, the food up there was really good (which is basically why I go
there in the first place).
Today I had gone to meet my teacher (guru would be a better word, I
think) Dr. Patankar. The satisfaction I got after talking to him is
only to be experienced.Well, it's a bit difficult to write about him,
because it would take a lot of time and effort to come up with
something that that can do justice to his wide spec...
