..Thanks for your comments Quote:
With lunch not filling our stomachs, we stopped at Marayoor Bus-stand and bought some fruits and filled up ourselves. By this time heavy winds stopped and weather was cloudy.I felt that road is much wider after Marayoor and was confidently driving..We passed through the Sandalwood forest. Wifey checks the printout and orders me to stop for every 10 mins. So after every 10mins, parked Indi in a relatively safe place, got down and enjoy the nature..We encountered many waterfalls enroute...Let the pics talk.... | |||

| As we were nearing Munnar, there were many tea/coffee estates and the landscape turns to green everywhere. Wifey examining the plants :-)  More Pics:          By 4PM, we reached Lakkam waterfalls (which is just before Eravakulam National park). Light rain started and we ventured out to the falls in the rain itself. Spent around 30 mins near the waterfall, had tea from a shop and continued... Lakkam Falls:    Enroute to Munnar , Nearing Eravakulam National Park:      At some places, the road becomes narrow and I was driving cautiously. When down hill, at most places, I was using either 2nd or 3rd gears and on Uphill used 1st or 2nd..Also, I never tried to look at the valley and concentrated only on the track. At one place an Auto was climbing and I was on down hill on the middle of the road at a turn. I could not notice the auto at the turn and stopped suddenly and then moved to left side..The auto guy was staring at me..I just smiled and said sorry.. Close to 5-30 PM, we reached Eravakulam National Park... |
