Actually I had to catch my train to Kolkata today, though unfortunately my train is three hours late and I am stranded at New Delhi Railway Station with my laptop. Stranded in the middle of crowds of people with a hot cup of chai and seated comfortably, I am writing, hoping to upload it as soon as possible.
With this I would like to continue my blog from where I had previously ended it.
Kodaikanal
So from the beautiful sea, I set off towards the Western Ghats, the hills. I know Kodaikanal is in Tamil Nadu and not really in Kerala, but my trip was majorly based in Kerala hence the name.
The temperature was cool when I had been there in March, about twenty degrees. The weather was mild, and there were a lot of viewpoints good for photography. But there was not much to see except hills and forests, like in all hills.
And of course, the pictures. Hills are heaven for photographers- we just never stop clicking.
So this is one of the viewpoints that I had been to. And seriously, it was a scene that we often get to see in hills, I won't deny. But still, this picture was worth it. Don't you think?
Do not expect it to be like the Himalayan hills with little streams here and there, and whistling gullies flowing down. You will not certainly find them, since the rivers and streams in the South are seasonal and greatly depend on the rains. Luckily, I found one.
The Guna caves was the most fascinating. We had to walk a bit on a trail. It made you feel like a knight from the medieval ages, fighting dragons, and looking for gold. One can literally hear all sorts of birds coo, and I momentarily checked around for wild animals and beasts.

Then I went to this Pine Forest which was a tourist spot. Words cannot define it.
Then I went to see a park, and well, here are some pictures I took from there.

Well, then what? Some mediocre trekking for beginners.
Then we visited the Silent Valley, also called the Suicide Point. These names are so common around hills, eh?

Then I discovered a beautiful walkway while strolling out of my hotel.
P.S. - I think I have to type a Kerala Part 3 as well.
