I could not pen down our experience on Wayanad trip due to work pressure. I was waiting for some free time but came to know, after a long time though, that if I postpone something, I’ll continue to postpone forever. [Wow! I am speaking philosophy nowadays. 🙂 ]
Anyway, let me start with a shot summary of the trip:
Date: 29, 30, 31 Aug 2008
Places:
Day1 -> Edakkal Cave, Meenmutty Falls, Lakkidi viewpoint
Day2 -> Pookot Lake, Banasura Dam-The largest earth dam in India
We felt our previous trip [to Kodaikanal & Munnar] involved lots of travelling, which we felt is the only disappointing thing in the whole trip and we decided to keep the distance in mind for future trips. The result is here, less travel, more fun. 🙂
The distance between Bangalore and Wayanad is 255 kms, which means around 5 hrs of journey. So, we started off from Bangalore at 11pm on 29th Aug, 08. Reached our destination early in the morning, around 5:30am. It was still dark and we struggled hard to find a Hotel to get fresh. Somehow we managed to finish all our morning rituals with the help of an unknown person over there, and we all are thankful to him.
Before moving on to the main tourist attractions, here are some warm-up pics for you.
