This is for my Son, who is more interested in " Trains", this subject will make him awake for entire night also, but if exams are there, then touch bed as early as possible after dinner.So planned and started early at 7.30 am from Pune, reached Lonavala by 9 am with some breaks in between.
Lonavala hosted a small train exhibition for "Central Railways " with various old models & photos ,used at Matheran and other places. It was worth a site to check out all old models with name as "FairyQueen","Ramgotty","Decauville", "Phoenix",WDS" etc. and a Live Model Train with station, signals, my son was overwhelmed with the train experience and enjoyed each and every moment looking at all models & studying it.
Later we thought of visiting some good known places in Lonavala, since drove all way from Pune, so chilled at Rajmachi, checking for Duke's Nose, Tiger Hill and SRK house, Film shooting area, valley point. Moving on to Valvan Dam, a well maintained place by Tata's, kept neat & clean, but no snaps to be taken, cool & calm place. We relaxed for some time there before having lunch at Hotel Ramakrishna on the highway.
Started at 1.30 pm from Lonavala with the AC on, touched Pune, my place at 2.10 pm, nice long drive, kids were asleep all the way back as they had a BIG sight seeing expereince in the soaring heat walking & runinng.
