Day 2
Who woke me up. Hmm it was this little bird who kept on knocking the window glass. May be the bird was thinking its seeing a different bird seeing its own mirror image.Once a bird died doing so. So sad .






I still managed to sleep till 9. Today I had to head to Calicut. Thought will start by noon.Before that I wanted to click some more for exhibition. So after break fast I though will go for a walk. Bichu also joined me. It was fun time , she was also helping me to find my subjects.Look what I have got.



















































I started by 2:30. Now I had to take bike down to road from the house.I tried to ride it down having faith in my skills but I was wrong. It was very slippery. I cant break either front or back would slip. Even without breaking also it was slipping like anything and more over a decline. I got down from bike even I was slipping. Soon we got help from bichu’s cousins. We 3 managed to get it down with out a fall. Bichu father had already warned me to take their help and not to ride it alone.

I started my journey towards home. Its just 15 km to Banasura Sagar from her house.I can go that way which is a little longer compared to going via Kalpetta. I preferred to take the longer route just because of Banasura. Every time I visit here it’s a different mood.It was rainy this time. I decided to get close to the water body thru a route which I have always seen but never tried. That route actually leaded to small house.

There was a lady I asked her If I can go near by and take some snaps of water. She called her husband. Then he came , I just introduced my self and requested. He was very kind he just guided me to behind his home that leads to a all new view of the place. How lucky these guys are.They had 4 Acers of land there and are trying to sell it of. 50lacs per acer.I spend time there talking to him and doing what I went for.




































I started from there, then again it started raining. And as I approached towards the ghat section the visibility gone down almost with full of fog. I stopped near the Lakkidi view point to have some salted mango and pineapple. Yummy man I never miss this, just love it. Now the next stop was my home. First time on my bike to my new house. I was completely wet , really enjoyed riding in rain. Every one was waiting for me! All smiling faces and some complaints for not informing them when I started from Wayanad J And then followed a good Meal - Ghee rice and Ginger Chicken


Why is sky not green ? I wish it was.. green too
