Exploring IITA

Alarm went off at 5:45 am but I was too lazy to get up so I slept for another 1hr before finally pulling myself off the bed to start my morning walk. It was also an opportunity to explore the grounds of IITA and to enjoy the amazingly soothing scenery of well manicured grass and well catered flowers. The campus is really beautiful. My main aim was to discover the lake which I did after a 25min walk from my flatlet. Apparently the lake was created by widening a section of an existing river. The river also serves as source of irrigation for the numerous farms in the premisis. I had to cut short my walk to catch the breakfast

After a quick breakfast, I decided to explore some more taking a route from the back of my flatlet, midway down I felt it will be a good opportunity to track it down to the lake using a different route from the one I used in the morning.

In total I walked 15,000 steps covering 10.55 kms in the process and burning 926 calories.Læs mere
