Hi,
If Hampi trip was unplanned, Ooty trip was not even thought of at the last moment.
It just happened that we were unable to materialise one trip to Wonderla and to compensate for it we decided to go on for Ooty trip at 12 O'Clock Midnight.
So after that we just hired a cab and started our journey.
We passed Bandipur and Madumalai during our journey and found preponderance of Deers, in fact we had a photo too with Deers. After reaching Ooty we booked a Hotel and after some rest move to unveil the mysterious beauty of "Utakmandal". First we went to Dodabetta Peak ( highest in Nilgiri ) 2634 mts above Sea level it may boasts of its height and we have to admit the same.It was quite a good view from their.Then we saw Ooty lake, did boating there, went to Rose Garden and its collection was good though one looking for bunch of Roses will disappoint himself.
Then we went to Botanical Garden and then back to our hotel room.
The Next day we started early to get toy train to reach Connor. It was exhilarating experience for more than once reason. We have nice scenery and we got a good college group, so we played Antakshari and njoid it too :)
In Connor we saw a Tea Factory, Dolphin's Nose, Lamb's Rock,Sim's Park and it seemed to me they tried to emulate Ooty here.
In connore more than anything else we enjoyed Car Ride on Bumpy Tracks and clouds above and below us and drizzle to add special effects.
On our return we went to see Mysore Palace and we saw the famous palace with all the lights showing its grandeur. It was a nice experience.
I have been to hill stations like Shimla , Kodia Canal , Munnar and i always found each one different from other. Though the clouds, the treess, the weather if you look from your naked eyes dont look different but the charm each one possess is different.They are special on their on way and invite each one of us to explore them, to admire them.
