 Dear ANRIA members,

D Reji, Thankachan Koratty & Poly Devassy, officio member Steephan Davis, nominated executives Vinod Kumar, Thankachan Pynadath, Anil Kumar, supported by Baiju Vengoor & Tyju (photographer) to make this picnic a grand success.

ANRIA is one of the leading association in the UAE, & we are proud to be the members of this family. We have reached over 1000 members including families & bachelors.

On the occasion of UAE’s 38 National Day we arranged a trip to Al Ain Zoo & Jabal Hafeet Mountain. Everyone got together in the Parking Lot of Lulu Centre Karama by 8 AM.

Our BELLO Dubai Luxury Tourist Bus Rental, buses started the engines at 8:30AM & the journey begun with singing & dancing , funny games, jokes, antakshari, tongue twister etc.

 There were around 110 people including children for the trip. Our first destination was Jabal Hafeet & on the way we had a halt for chai & breakfast at 10Am. We reached Jabal Hafeet at 11:30AM, and we enjoyed the site seeing on top of the mountain. We had lunch below the mountain near the lake by the BELLO’s and we fed the fishes in the lake park thereafter.

We commenced the 2nd part of our journey to Al Ain Zoo at 2:30 pm. It was a small drive of around 15 – 20 mins. Amazing Bird show was one of the item which we enjoyed much along with the different birds and animals of the zoo. We realized that the sun has set at our end of trip& we were back to our home at 7:00pm from there. We reached back to the dropping point –Karama at 9:00 PM. We exchanged greetings & moved back home with our sweet memories of trip.

Hope to have more people for our next coming events. Thanks to all for kind co operation.
