Potpourri!

A little careful planning can prevent a lot of problems during an enjoyable travel. No one wants his/her travel to go awry, everyone's intention being to enjoy to the fullest. I'm going to share with you some of my travel experiences and suggestions that might save you a lot of headache during travel.

Munnar:
Munnar is a serene, tranquil hill station located in Kerala. It promises a perfect escape from the hassles of busy life and is undoubtedly one of the best places to unwind. The journey to Munnar is fraught with numerous bends and its human to get nauseated. Cumin water which is slightly pink in color is available in every eatery and its advisable to have a bottle in hand always. This is a natural antidote to the nausea caused during hill travel.

Munnar has a number of Hotels and Resorts to suit all budgets. Each of them promises to offer you a picturesque view of Munnar. My stay was at Sterling Resorts, which greeted us with a ginger ale on our arrival. After a long nauseating travel, its the best one can ask for! Munnar is a place to be visited when one has a lot of time at disposal, only then can one enjoy all the charm of this wonderful place. So make plans accordingly.

Wayanad:
For adventure seekers Wayanad is paradise. One can indulge in a variety of activities from trekking to chilling out at a waterfall. All the three places that we visited during the stay were really amazing. I was spell bound by the mysterious charm of the Edakkal caves. The next stop was Kuruva Dweep where we crossed three branches of a main stream. The last stop, which is also the most memorable was at Meenmutty Falls. We had to trek a long way into the dense vegetation to reach the falls. Believe me the falls is one of the most astounding things I had ever seen!

Again Wayanad too is a place to be enjoyed only when one has a lot of time. Our stay was at Hotel Regency in Sultan Bathery from where we did all the travel. The hotel was pretty decent and the most appealing feature is its hospitality.

Wherever you travel, its always better to check out the hotel rates before you arrive. So, its better to allot some time to analyze the hotels at your destination, the price, the facilities and the reviews of other people about each hotel. So you have to zero down on one hotel after careful comparison. There is one website that can ease all your comparison work, HotelsCombined! Listings of hotels all over the world are available here and it searches multiple hotel reservation websites simultaneously to help you find the lowest rate instantly!

Bon Voyage!

Have you ever looked down from your flat or from a building with atleast 10 floors?? No !! Well, of course everyone has the fear to see down. But have you ever felt how could it be when you are nearly on the top of world ?? Forget the aeroplanes, where you just can sit but here is a place where you can get a tingling sensation with safety to your life !! Its the Glass Bridge.

Glass Bridge is suspended about 4,000 feet above the Colorado River on the very edge of the Grand Canyon . It can withstand the weight of 71 fully loaded Boeing 747 airplanes (more that 71 million pounds). The bridge will be able to sustain winds in excess of 100 miles per hour from 8 different directions, as well as an 8.0 magnitude earthquake within 50 miles.

More than one million pounds of steel got into the construction of the Grand Canyon SkyWalk!!!!!
