The Sun set













It was 4.35 by the time we departed. Agumbe was a good one hour’s drive from Sringeri. But, the bus needed to be re-fueled. We lost a precious few moments there. Being a very clear day, I guessed we were in for a treat at Agumbe for the sun set. The journey to Agumbe was a race with time. In the bus, we could see the sun going down, changing its color from bright yellow to bright orange to orange to bright red. The anxiety became unbearable once we reached Agumbe. But, we still had to travel another couple of kilometers from there. We reached the sun set point, just in the precise time. Me, Sharathu, Sudhanva and Sumanthu looked for a better vantage point. The sun set, was not completely visible. The sun disappeared behind the clouds that seemed to exist only just a few inches from the ocean bed.
