Peacock Lake

If one is in (or near) Hyderabad University in winter, one of the must dos should be to visit the lakes inside the university campus at dawn break.

It was about 01:30 hrs on 16th, when we decided to visit the peacock lake at dawn. Altough we planned to leave at 05:00 hrs, by the time the was enough quorum (of 2) it was 05:45 when we started from IIIT. At the end of what was about a 4km walk, we reached the lake side - braving a warning sign about water snakes at the start of the mud track leading to the lake - just after sun rise, to find a soft whitish sheet of mist gliding over the lake's waters in the cool morning breeze. After soaking in the beauty of the nature for a few minutes, it was then time to start walking back to be in there in time for the first lecture of the 2nd day of the conference.

Sleepy in Hyd
