Kerala Trip - Day 2
Day 2
Wayanad to Thrissur
*Wake up at 6am at Morning Dew Homestay---must go to explore the area, don't know when we will be back.
* So beautiful, so lush, so verdant, so blue, and oh so peaceful!
*Morning tea sitting on the swing--must get one of these at home too--something so soothing about them.
*Lots of photos with the owners family and then we're off to Calicut.
*We head to the beach....it's hot, hot, hot on the sand, but must dip my toes tinto the waters where Vasco Da Gama landed....well, it was nearby at Kappad Beach anyhow!
*Search for Bombay Restaurant after hearing about their famous biryani...but it's closed for renovations.
*Head to the Beach Hotel to eat...nice charming place!
*Delayed to puncture and subsequent repair and wheel balancing.
*Excitement of the Day---> We need to wear sarees over our capris and t-shirts to enter the Guruvayoor temple. We change in our mini-van in the parking lot....the driver has a good laugh too! Now I can definitely wear a saree anywhere :-)
*The line was endless, so we did our darshan from the lookout point outside...what an anticlimax!
*Finding our way to the River Retreat resort on the narrow and dark roads.
*We finally reach just before 9pm...it's been a long and tiring day!

Please post more pictures! I am a sucker for travel stories.
The pic in the post is of the Beach Hotel in Calicut, where we stopped for lunch.
The pic in the blog header is of a rain shelter on Camel's Back Road in Mussoorie.
Thanks so much...it was fun to see my home on Arch's blog....feels great and authenticated now!
Most of my travel shots are on flickr...but will keep posting them here as well...trying to post different ones here though to keep things interesting!
This was a very nice read (both day1 and day 2). You have a wonderful way with words.
