Apr 9, 2010 Cycling, Kerala, Wayanad, Weekend Getaway
Last time I visited Wayanad was in December 2006. It was a 3 day errand around Kalpetta, the district head quarters Wayanad. First two days were spent in visiting the lakes, dams and also safaris at Muthanga wildlife sanctuary & Tholpetty wildlife sanctuary, reserving the last day for trekking up Chembra peak.
Now after three and half years, I am visiting Wayanad this weekend. A two day visit – cycling around the tea estates, passing by the Chembra peak and visit to Meenmutty & Suchipara falls.

More on the ride once I’m back.
I Was Here: Chembra Peak
Sep 28, 2009 I Was Here, Kerala, Trek, Wayanad
Lean period continues for me. Not much options other than armchair travelling, pondering over my good old travel days and browsing through my photo archive.

On Clay: Wayanad & Elephants
Apr 20, 2009 Adventure, Kerala, Publish, Wayanad, Wildlife
We had completed almost three fourth of the safari and had to stop because of a traffic jam. It took us few seconds to understand what was happening. There was a herd of wild elephants which were crossing our path. Or to put it in a correct way, we were crossing their path and had to wait for our turn.

A small write-up on my experience with the wild elephants in Wayanad is published on Clay (an acronym for Club Mahindra And You!).
Thanks Lakshmi for publishing the write-up.
