For all those who love Gods Own Country

It’s not about Kerala food

.Nothing new from me, one more ride back home. Don’t expect a trip detailed log from me, In short: I started on 5th June Friday 3am. Bangalore-Gundelpet was a non-stop marathon in 2:45 minutes, next 200km till Calicut via wayanad took 5hours, I hope the photos will answer why..
Here is a short preview of this beautiful land J
Early Morning.. NICE Road..

Green Paradise.. Wayanad

I reached the forest range at the rite time in the morning

Its been more than a year I saw all of them

Recent times the elaphants are more on road during early morning and late in the evening. Saw in news that they are gonna close the road between 6pm-6am

. In that case it will be dificult for people who regulary uses this route to Calicut. Then will have to go through Kannur, road condition is real bad via Kannur.

Moment I Entered Kerala I was welcomed by Rain Gods...!! It was raining all the way till Calicut. Infact it was raining more in Calicut than in Wayanad.

I think its some section of Chembara Peak. I could never trekk here so far.

I've always been a fan of Kerala courtesy friends like you who enjoy the beauty & make us jealous with those b'ful shots. Though, I've never been there but plan to do it soon.

Reality; as they say, is often more breathtaking than imagination for places like these.
Nice ride there Rockyyy..... A lil longer log is expected but pics are must. More !!
