Its going to be Bangalore - Yercaud - Kodaikanal - Munnar - Thekaddi (Probably) and then back to Bangalore. Will update the post as I am closer to the day and also will update back after the actual trip. The route sure seems to be an exciting one after what I have heard about NH7 being as good as a air strip. Hopefully it truns out to be as good as it is made out to be. But any way a non bumpy road should be good enough as well. The route and travel is approximately going to be around 600 KMS one way if we are going to just stick to Munnar and leave out Thekaddy. 1000+ Kms of driving and oh damn! I am looking forward to it. Hopefully summers not going to be hard on me. Just need to get the engine oil changed on the vehicle and it should be up and ready for the roar. Alrighty, as of now I have narrowed down on the place of accomodation on each of this location. Beautiful view from balcony is the most important factor. Do not wish to cover every picnic place in each of the venue. The enigmatic look, the pure bliss right from the balcony of the place we are going to stay is the key. ... <a href="http://www.itcafeonline.net/travel-living/bangalore-yercaud-kodai-munnar-trip-t-t1093.html"><b>more ...</b></a> <b>Statistics</b> : 2 Post || 831 Views Post by <b>rollingstones</b> Travel &amp; Living - News - Digest http://www.itcafeonline.net/travel-living/bangalore-yercaud-kodai-munnar-trip-t-t1093.html http://www.itcafeonline.net/travel-living/welcome-change-t-t1078.html Thu, 04 Mar 2010 09:07:24 GMT <h5><a href="http://www.itcafeonline.net/travel-living/" title="Travel &amp; Living">Travel &amp; Living</a></h5> <b>Welcome change</b> Feel renewed and rejuvenated in these tranquil environs, 4000 feet above sea level.
