Monsoon
expeditions started as per plan, after couple of one day encounters it was time
to execute the long drive plans. Drive to munnar was planned well in advance.
This drive was planned for 3 days. Sunil, Pradeep, Guru and Siddesh joined for
this trip. Since we planned this trip in advance we got enough time to book
hotels for our stay and to make a list of places to visit.
We decided
the trip dates from July 8th to 10th. Started our journey
on Thursday late night itself, every one gathered near our home and started our
journey around 11.00PM. We can reach Munnar in different routes, since roads
will be closed in night time to public vehicles in forest check post (Mysore
route) we opted Housr – Dharmapuri - Selam – Namakkal – Dindagal – Munnar (around
520 Kms). Compared to other routes this route is bit long, but still considering
the condition of road we chose this route.
Since it was
late night, even traffic was not much and drive was very smooth. We estimated
around 10 hours drive to reach our destination, including all our breaks.
Till
Kodaikanal junction everything went as per plan. By the time we reach this
junction it was around 5.30AM even sun started to come out providing awesome
view. From here on our breaks were increased for photo session 
We were in
no hurry to continue our journey; main intention was to enjoy the nature. Stopped
near many view points and continued our photo session.
I should mention
about this spot. View at this point was changing every minute, mist, sun light,
passing clouds all together it was fest for our eyes
Finally we reached our destination Ayur County resorts around 9.00 a.m.. Sunil booked a Ayur County Resorts which is located 15 kms away from Munnar. Last time when I visited Munnar crossed this resort but could not stay here, but it was in bucket list. During this visit ticked this from wish list.
Finishing all the check in formalities it’s time to get fresh and relax for a while. My personal opinion is we can spend awesome time in and around this resort only instead of going out for side seeing.
We decided to spend some time in pool before going out for side seeing. Cold weather and continuous rain for a sec made us to think about it, but it was fun 
Trust me one should try that ! It was awesome experience.
After getting refresh, we planned to visit Mattupetty Dam which was around 30 Kms from resort.
Munnar is the best hill station which i have ever seen till today in India. I love to make tour to this kind of the places along with my friends. I have been to this place in the month of he January in the year 2016. That was one of the great experienced gained by me.
