Gushed down a couple of coffees and spent the night sitting and chatting. Good time to catch up with Family (especially with the busy schedules at work now). Started from Gundulpet @ 4.30 am and reached the Forest gate by 5.15 am. Gates open only by 6 am and luckily the traffic was not as bad as the last time. We managed to scoot through the gates and reached Kalpetta by 8 am in the morning.
We had booked a Villa (3 bedroom) at Kalpetta. Now you must be wondering why? Actually it is a long story. To cut is short, one of my friend was supposed to be joining us for this trip and he had cancelled in the last minute. But the owner was good enough to understand and just charged us Rs.2000 including breakfast/coffee.
Refreshed ourselves and started towards Chembra Peak. Now comes
the gala time. We could not believe our eyes, when we saw Sai Sharan trek all the way. We managed to reach half way through (heart shaped lake). Forced to return because a strong breeze swept Sai Sharan off his feet and he fell face flat. Poor kiddo got hurt on his lip and it was swollen really bad.Few photos taken up there:
Reached back to the room dead tired and slept like a log till Sunday morning.
Started back from Wayanad back to Bangalore on Sunday morning @ 9 am and decided to go to Gopalaswamy betta (Near Bandipur). Good decision and an awesome spot. Check out few photos below to understand how it felt. We literally felt the clouds pass through us and it felt so divine to be there with God's creation.
We still had lots of time and Sai Sharan was requesting us for another visit to the Mysore zoo. So his wish is our command and we landed up going there. Lots of new additions like the Wolf, Cheetah etc.
The Drive back was peaceful and we reach Bangalore by 10.30 pm in the night and crashed into bed directly.
The good thing about this trip is that it purified all the pollution in my body and makes me feel really good. Looking forward for another trip soon.
