Wonder la Trip

Weekend… This word always brings smile into my face. It’s not new for me, it started from my school days and still continuing when I am doing job in an education field. When I was a kid , I used to feel happy that I don’t have to go to school on Sunday… and amazingly nothing has changed now also. Only difference being school is replaced by job place… and to tell you secret… I still feel happy that I don’t have to go job.
Everybody plans something for weekends and so we did. Last 2 months were very busy and stressful…not only mentally but physically too and I was desperately needing a break. This idea came on 25th December Sunday morning to me while taking breakfast .Immediately we call to the cab driver MAHANTESH bhaiya and booked one. Within an hour all packing was over and we left for WONDER LA at 11.30 am sharp .Allas!!!Our journey started…… .
Wonder la…is an amusement park. Firstly, let’s have some information and history about it. It is located near Bidadi, 28 kilometers from Bangalore, spanning over 82 acres of land. Wonder la has 53 land and water based rides. The park features a wide variety of attractions including some gut wrenching high thrill rides, refreshing and clean water rides, a spectacular Musical fountain and laser show, a one of its kind Virtual Reality Show showcasing unusual cinematic experience. It has locker rooms with over 2350 lockers and adequate restrooms and showers. The park also features a full-fledged first aid.
Nothing much is needed but as water games are involved ,better to keep some extra clothes , towels, sunscreen, moisturizer, cap ,goggles, sleepers, 2.5 litres 1 water bottle for two persons . After 2 hours we reached there  ,had entrance tickets costing 700 per head . Timings surprisingly were 11 am to 6.30 pm. It’s our personal experiences that before moving to different rides have something to fill your and then go for rides. Because once we enter in rides we forget stomach. After reaching there immediately we went to locker rooms to keep our bags and had little stomach fill. Point to remember, first complete all other rides and then go for water sports. This is the only mistake we did  because if we do what we did, skin gets dry and itchy afterwards.
The first water sport we tried was called “Wave pool”. In Bangalore got chance through Wonder la to get a feeling of natural waves of a beach. Don’t worry, water is not salty like Sea but waves were really hammering us a lot. Waves are generated from two corners and it is really strong. We somehow managed to go till the end and it was unbelievable moment. I am little scary of water but surprisingly I was enjoying that moment. Near about we were there till 1 hour. After wave pool, it was the time for water slides, called fun racers. These are water slides where you slither down lying prostrate on rubber mates. It is very enjoyable ride and suitable for all age group. But the most exciting one was “Twister”. Unfortunately we can’t able to take any snap at any time inside wonder la. There were many different type of slides and each has its own element of fun. We really had a good time sliding and shouting. We wanted to finish our water sports by laser show rain dance. There we danced a lot on latest songs ……..again for another hour. The feel to it is like a family disco with complete discipline. We were completely wet so stand some time in a sun for warm up and without changing clothes went for other games.

We had a Techo-Jump ride really amazing and full of thrill and fun .After that we went to Water splash ride .This is one of the beautiful ride I found through tunnel ………..wow! .
By the time we finished these adventures rides, we were fully exhausted and were dying for food. It was almost 4.30 pm. We went to restaurant called Chillies restaurant and ordered chat and hot Masala Dosa’s . Food was good. After that, we relaxed for half an hour sitting on chairs below tree and in one shop bought Wonder la Monkey,a soft toy for remembrance .We also took snap together catching this beautiful moment . Everything was great and superb in this surprising trip. We reached home by 9 pm…….and went to sleep.
