Welcome to wayanad

Two days back we have skipped the party as we have been quite tired on the evening of the 25th.
Another few hours of sightseeing in fort kochi The day after.
The rest of the 26 has been spent in searching for the bus to kozhikode which we almost missed when it would not have left 1 hour delayed.
In kozhikode we had to ask a couple of people to find the local bus stand. Once reached the bus to kalpetta in wayanad left immediately – lucky people. Even if it was already half past eleven in the night our host still served some buffet dinner.
yesterday we climbed the chembra peak, the highest peak in Wayanad region. The trek was steep and the scenery divers. Half way up there was a heart shaped lake which we used for a short refreshment on the way down.
We reached the sealed road in the early evening and asked a group of Indian people with their Jeep for a lift down to the place of the rickshaw stand because we ran out of water on the way down. These guys were very helpful and took us back to kalpetta. They invited us for tea and biscuits on the way at the road side.

Today is wildlife sanctuary Jeep safari with the chance to see wild animals. Press thumbs for me!
Followed by a 10 hour trek.

Here are a few pictures of chembra peak:
