Weather update in The Abode of Gods Mount Abu.

Weather update in the Abode of Gods, Mount Abu.


Escaping the Scorching Heat: A Sojourn from Ahmedabad to Mount Abu

Ahmedabad, during the sweltering months of April and May, felt like an inferno. The extremely hot weather and water scarcity made people sweat and worry a lot. In such unbearable conditions, the people of Gujarat sought respite, flocking to their beloved getaway, “The Abode of the Gods,” at Mount Abu. Yet irony prevailed, as the caretakers of comfort found themselves facing discomfort.

The hot temperatures, traffic, and lack of parking options frustrated tourists visiting Mount Abu. Despite the escape from the oppressive heat of Ahmedabad, the experience on Mount Abu was far from ideal.

Liz thought I was going to Konk, so she sent me to Abu on May 21st. It was nice to be back home and feel the cool winds here. The weather isn't as refreshing as expected, but it's better than the scorching plains.

The sky, as I write this, is overcast, indicating the likelihood of imminent pre-monsoon showers and thunderstorms. The pressing concern, however, lies in the unfinished road infrastructure. The ongoing roadworks, with cables and sewage pipes being laid, pose a risk as the monsoons approach. Incomplete sections of the road could spell disaster for travellers. We need to finish these projects quickly to avoid chaos and difficulties caused by unfinished roads.

We are hopeful that these crucial projects will be completed before the monsoon season to prevent potential catastrophes. We await a smooth and safe passage for travellers on the roads by crossing our fingers.


Looking Forward to our first pre-monsoon shower.

Summer Festival 2018 Mount Abu.

A Local Wonder, Mount Abu’s Enchanting Summer Festival 2018

Nestled within the picturesque splendour of Mount Abu, the tiny hill station will come alive this year with its much-anticipated Summer Festival, which will begin on May 11th, 2018. While it lacks the grandeur of Goa’s lively carnivals or the extravagance of Brazilian festivals, the Summer Festival is nothing short of amazing for the people.

Behind the scenes, the town officials’ painstaking preparation and the local community’s committed efforts have converted this event into a spectacle that reflects the spirit of Mount Abu. They carefully designed the settings for the various activities to provide competitors and spectators with spectacular views of the surroundings.

Mount Abu will witness a unique combination of ethnic acts as the sun sets. Each event offers an experience that corresponds with the ethos of the hill station, from fascinating performances to informative discussions. The town administration has planned these activities at strategic locations to ensure that tourists may take part in the celebrations while also enjoying the breathtaking splendour that Mount Abu offers.

They urge tourists to pay particular attention to official notifications specifying the timetable of events and their corresponding venues. This guarantees that every attendee may make the most of their time and experience the festival’s many cultural activities.

The Summer Festival in Mount Abu ensures more than amusement for those fortunate enough to mount the hill and become a part of this celebration—it gives an opportunity to make lifelong memories in the lap of the gods. This event is a must-attend for everyone looking for a genuine and enlightening experience, thanks to its unique combination of local traditions, cultural acts, and the natural splendour of Mount Abu.

So, if you find yourself lured to the picturesque highlands of Mount Abu this May, don’t miss out on the Summer Festival. Take part, enjoy the cultural variety, and take home lovely memories from the Abode of the Gods.

Our INTERNET this part of the world suffers from Alzheimer'sMt Abu.

1.1.1.1. Internet Hijacked in Mount Abu: A Rant Worth Reading.

Hey there, mates! Does your internet in Mount Abu—or wherever you are—drive you to the brink of madness too? Recently, the internet seems determined to drive me crazy. Just as I settle down to work on something important, poof—it’s gone.

 Today’s episode began with a burst of inspiration. Focused on my writing, my internet crashed without warning. Now, I can’t even remember the brilliant idea I was working on. My unpredictable internet connection is giving me a taste of what Alzheimer’s must feel like—a condition I wouldn’t wish on anyone.

My creativity was flagging, so I tried listening to psychedelic music to revive it. But since Mount Abu, the abode of the gods, forbids weed, I couldn’t pair it with the usual suspects. Plan B: whisky. Heavy shots, no less. Spoiler alert: neither the music nor the alcohol did much to elevate my spirits. Instead, the vibe turned somber, and blues replaced my sarcasm.

And then—tring! The internet resurrected itself, mocking me like a fickle magician. Ah, finally, time to update my thoughts! Oh, wait...what was I about to say? The brilliance I thought would flood back with connectivity remains missing in action.

So here I am, raising a virtual toast to this unreliable companion called the internet. It’s like a people pleaser, trying to cater to everyone yet failing to meet the needs of even one individual when it matters most.

Till next time, folks. Keep smiling through the chaos and let’s hope the internet gods smile down upon us more consistently. Cheers!
