Totally exhausted and still recovering from the highs. Already hit with work and so written posts will take a li'l more time...until then...pictures tell a 1000 words, and how! :-)
This was the first glimpse of the Nilgiri hills at daybreak, taken from a moving bus. Missed a lot of good shots since the bus was going up the hairpin bends too quickly for me to point and shoot. The consolation is that the view is etched in my memory and pictures, however awesome, can never capture the true essence of nature's awesome beauty.
The view from the balcony of the luxurious guesthouse we stayed at. Its atop one of the highest hills in Coonoor with tea gardens and plantations laid out like a lush green carpet right out front! One of the first pics I took in the crisp and chilly morning air on arrival.
The entrance to my room overlooked the manicured lawns of a beautiful cottage, belonging to the owner of the guesthouse. Beyond are more tea plantations and the mountains.
Surrounded by greenery all around! Behind the guesthouse.
My room was on the first floor of the guesthouse and the views were simply breathtaking. My eyes simply couldn't get enough of the green! Truly a sight for sore eyes. Meri aankhon aur kaleja ko bhi thandak pahunch gayee! :) The pic above is of the staircase leading down to the gate and driveway to the house. That's a new friend I made on the trip talking on the cellphone! These were the first few pics I took as soon as we arrived. More to come shortly!
