I, my sister, my geologic friend, that is the whole crazy party become unstable to get out after spending continuous 3-4 months monotonous routine life. Where to go, it is difficult to decide.

One morning, taking leave from the office everyone went out of the house for Massanjore. On the road side we had our breakfast with potatoes and kachuri.

There was a large dining space adjacent. Large TV with cable connection. Many beautifully decorated sofa sets in the dining room.
There are people there, which will be said to cook on the cost. In the afternoon, there were a lot of fun with capturing so may beautiful pictures of the dam and the children were playing on the side of the bank of the dam. We saw some men were catching fish far away.
