Hope this re-ignites the drive threads.

Guess I was the first one to post on the thread after a long break. Answer to your question is "No". Snaps and the mentioned route brought back some good old memories and that is why I made a post, now happy to see the thread getting some new life.

Early monsoon will hit the ghats, those in Bangalore can already feel the beginning.

Ealry monsoon this time, predicted to hit Kerala coast by May 26th. Inspired by this thread, planning to take a trip from Munnar to Idukki once the rain sets.

Ron, Change in plan. Taking-off to Mangalore via Shiradi ghats, hoping to enjoy rains in the Mangalore beaches. I have not done this road for last 4 years due to the horrible roads..Munnar Idukki nead to wait now. Please let me know if you plan to hit the beaches during this week

Did you go? If you haven't yet PM me - I went in Dec 08 to a very good plantation resort near Kalpetta and had a great time.

Great place and great photos. Ever green memories of my young age comes around my mind.Really Munnar, Rajakkadu,Thekkady are great places and Gods own land. I would like to make a trip with my grand daughters. Some queries :Those days we stayed in Periyal House. Is it there seems it is run by KTDC. Did they start the boat service in the dam.
