If silence is a call for you, Munnar waits, 110 kms east of Cochin/Kochi International/domestic Airport; where  an unchained magic wand, kept the green waves on halt to break in loud splashes…!! Contrary to the ``coffee penchant –South`` Munnar lives on tea. The intoxicating aroma of crushed green tea leaves create ``musk`` effect inside of, every must visit ``tea factory``. The cloud floats tugs away the shadow over the green valleys over the lakes… leaves behind the symphony of silence. Two days in Munnar-an unexplainable love render.

The monsoon beauties!!

The monsoon beauties:-
Susurration of fugitive monsoon streams, rapid sooth on asphyxia of city life. Underneath the lush vegetation a biodiversity lurks. Wait and wait to get a glimpse of them. Puddles filled with tadpoles, shrubs with flickers of yellow, bluish grey, brown spots, as elusive as an untouchable dream-they are flickering fluttering butterflies. Cameo appearance of a yellow crab crosses the lateritic rut. The antenna eyes follow it`s fan till it takes a dip in it`s puddle hide out.
Who left the white bordered orange lace on the mossy bark?? The unbelievable intricacy on the sporophore??
Squat on the ground let the mud-soft soil cover your toosies, bent to see where aerial-roots thicken the ill-lit. Wait! The patience pays!! The black-drop lightens, the acclimatised eyes see the levee of Mr. Giant Toad with his councillors- little toads, family of yellow crabs; some weave-masters too? May be! The weak camera phone fails to capture.
Let us leave them undisturbed! Let the fairy-tale meeting go on! Let Tinkerbell come to discuss the monsoon works -to be done!!
