The monsoon seemed to arrive when we embarked on a couple of rattly old army buses for the 90 minute drive to the DSSC Watermanship Centre at Pykhara Lake north of Ooty. Despite the weather it was interesting to visit the centre which has a fleet of Enterprise dinghies and holds several regattas during the year. I suspect that I will be dusting off my RYA racing rulebook and trying to give the Indian Navy a hard time on the water.
The trip led to whiplash injuries from being thrown around the bus as we careered around the twists and turns of the roads in the Nilgiris and I spent the rest of the day lying on my back trying to ease the pain in my lower back!
