    [Photo Feature]: Curves of Kerala: II

    THE RAINFOREST:

    Valparai to athirapally through the vazhachal forest is the most beautiful road we have ever experienced. this was a narrow road laid through the thick rain forest where even the sun light was hard to enter.
    The road was covered with fresh elephant dung all along the way. However we were not luck enough to spot a tusker.
    The following pictures taken while we were on cloud nine

    Athirapally falls:

    Athirapally falls also known as "the Niagara of India".
    Once we reach the entrance to the falls we will have to walk on a paved road through the thick bamboo clusters which lead to the 80feet waterfall.
    View from the top.

    The journey in my mind is a natural wonder in itself.

    Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
    The girl said, 'NO!'


    And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.


    THE END

      True, this road is beautiful yet scary. Thick dense forest, hardly any light, fog and fresh elephant dung all over. Did spot a nuclear elephant family (2 big ones and a kid) on the next hill, however didn't dare stop and click pics.

                    Amazing pics bro....we too did this route a week before...
                    valparai was amazing with rain and fog, the vazchal road was not good at the beginning...narrow and slippery but the forest was superb...full green n all...
                    P.S: We too were not lucky to spot a tusker...
