Well, I don't know how to describe this incident. It was all of a sudden,scary and yet left us excited and the end . The most unexpected thing happened to me last Saturday.
We went to lonavala for drive and enjoy a little cold climate after a week long hectic client visit at my office.We had no plan to stay back. So we went to tiger point for sunset etc. Watched the valley and it was all misty and we were enjoying the supply of hot tea and coffee with pakodas. Soon after sunset the cold wind started blowing.Initially it was very nice and comforting after the hot summer week we had in Mumbai.After a point the wind was chilling and we started blaming for not getting enough warm clothes. Soon the tea/coffee boy traded a pot of hot coal for some few bucks n then the silver moon was up in the sky. Around 10pm we got up for dinner n drive back. Came out of that sunset point n outside no light n both sides thick bush. We drove for 5mins then we saw a cow stating middle of the road. But the structure was not like a cow. Then we thought may be a big dog but we closed in and saw a FULL GROWN LEOPARD. Standing in the middle of the road n Looking on the other side. N on the other side there was a lone biker, it was looking at the biker.The expression of the cat was, "boss i am on my evening walk and dinner,who the hell are you at my home? "
We couldn't believe our own eyes. He is just standing 3 to 5 feet away from our car. Then he looked at us as my headlight was on his back. Looking at the greenish and yet fiery eyes were enough and he slowly walked out in bush. The biker was thrilled but scared. He left immediately. We stood for couple of min in the spot but the SO CALLED GHOST OF THE JUNGLE never appeared again.
We went back to the tigers point and alerted the people about him and drove back home. Everyone was speechless and excited.
Hope u all will like my experience.
