Mention  the words 'Summer vacations' and the mind immediately conjures up a kaleidoscope of  idyllic images -  long, lazy days in Nana-Nani's house, climbing  mango trees and eating raw mangoes till your teeth squeaked, inventing new games to while away the hours with your cousins, chatting about anything and everything under the sun, badgering Nani to tell you a ghost story that would scare you out of your wits (much to her disapproval)  and then stopping her just when she got to the climax, drinking endless glasses of chilled nimbu-paani or aam panna, taking a long walk in the evening when the sun mellowed down and finally heading  home to gorge on the absolutely delicious chicken curry, prepared local style by your Nani..............no TV, no laptop/ipad/tablet,  no rush of holiday classes, no hobby classes.... just you, your loved ones and your imagination in a picturesque environment.............that allows your mind to connect the dots (the TOI recently carried a piece on why it is important to create some absolutely unstructured free time for children)  ,  unravel and revel in the simplicity and beauty of a life so different from our frenzied existence. And now imagine  all of this being possible (you will, of course, have to bring your own Nani :))   just 2.5 hrs drive from Mumbai.............where Rural Mania is hosting  week-end visits replete with nostalgic moments :  plucking mangoes right off the trees, cycling on  empty roads, loitering by the lake and may be even taking a quick dip, walking up to the fruit orchard,  star gazing in the evenings, may be a camp-fire or a barbecue if you wish, ghost-hunting (for the brave-hearted), a bit of gardening if you are an early riser, sitting beneath the jamun tree and sipping your lemonade.....all the ingredients that go into a relaxing, unforgettable vacation. We are sure you will squeeze in sometime to interact with the children in the village, play games, teach them or learn something from them........... Read more
