A weekend with the boys at Shivasamudram

Got some old "Shikaar" tales to share? Found a great new spot to Fish? Any interesting camping experiences? Discussion of Back-packing, Bicycling, Boating, National Parks, Wildlife, Outdoor Cooking & Recipes etc.

A weekend with the boys at Shivasamudram

Some pics from a past weekend's trip to the WASI cottage.

Highlight of the trip was that both my sons caught their first fish and then some. So that's two more suckers hooked for life.

Thanks chaps. The next stage is to get them shooting. Prathap has given me two children size Dianas for them, which I will start refurbishing in a month or two from now. They will be given their shooting lessons by none less than Terry Doe. Now that should be a feather in their caps and a group pic they will treasure in the years to come.
