In the current trend of seemingly fast paced lifestyles...evr1 wants to get away for a good vacation. We did just that and ... boy o boy...it was fun all through.
2007.
We were treated for once a lifetime experience....
Our travel itenerary was something like this...
Day1 - Kochi - We had a good time driving about the city ..quite a good place...and i thought the Jew town was good...with its historic synagogue...it was the earliest settlement in this part of the country...and there was pure silence or rather peace in and around the area..
Then we drove to Athirapally falls touted as the Indian version of the Niagara...got properly drenched at the foot of the waterfall.
Day 2 and 3 - Munnar. Man whatta place ! simply heavenly..its a hill station...amazingly beautiful...was quite a sight when me and ma dad played wid the low flying clouds ! We had a whale of a time !
Day 4 - Thekkady. A forest reserve wid tigers n elephants...stayed in the middle of the jungle overnight and got a super dose of mother nature...oh yeah..saw a tigress walking her cubs ! at 3 am in the morning !
Day 5- Alleppey/Kumarakom - The backwater destination of Kerala...loved looking around those lagoons and lakes formed by the backwaters of the Arabian sea...cant stop being enthralled by the beauty of mother nature !
Day 6- Back to Kochi and did a bit of a shopping. We returned to Hyderabad pretty upset !
All over one remarkable thing that struck me was the greenery. Evrywhr its green green..
No wonder people call it the God's Own Country !!!
