I love this man! But when he came into I power I was disappointed since his hands seemed tied. But now he is a hero and in extreme action. Whoever thought one could touch such Hi-Fi people! I do feel sad for those people who did invest in those structures and I am sure most of them could be from the Gulf. Their hard earned money has now vanished. It is an eye opener for potential investors. It is good to check everything thoroughly before investing your hard earned money.
Some of those groups had the audacity to even stop streams by creating check dams! This means there were others who were denied their only source of water. I hope this continues else even this beautiful Hill Station called Munnar will be destroyed like Ooty and Kodaikanal. These places are so over crowded now and this has spoilt the natural beauty of the place. My first visit to Kodai was when I was in school.. I still remember the Koker's walk, the suicide point etc etc.. then the next visit was during our honey moon.. by then the place had changed.. more hotels nd concrete buildings... yet I would still love to visit the place again!

Monsoon
Today early in the morning the sky darkened and it started raining heavily for a short while. But it was enough to transport me home.. specially since we should be seeing the monsoon this year. I don’t think there is anything else so beautiful!
During one of our visits when the kids were small there was a flood. Our house is just a few feet away from the river with just a road to separate. When the rain starts one can see the water slowly changing its color. And when the rains have been heavier up in the mountains the water will become muddier. And then it will slowly creep up. Normally it stays just below the road but that year the rain was heavy and they had to open up a few dams. The water was all around the house and in our portico we could see fishes and small snakes. We were lucky that the bigger reptiles dint visit us, though this did happen to others. As for Hubby’s cousins as usual even this year they had to shift all their things to the second floor since the first floor was totally flooded! But for us visitors (from Gulf) it was fun time. The only hassle is that one cant venture outside but even this has its good side.. ur pockets r not drained!
