Munnar

We arranged a driver to take us from Madurai to Munnar, and on our way he stopped to have his brakes checked, tyres inflated and filled up on the petrol.  We wondered what the driver was up to, but as we began the ascent up the mountainside to Munnar we were thankful for his caution.

This has to be one of the most spectacular places we have visited whilst here in India.  We were high up in the mountains staying at a place called Kaivalayam Retreat, it is situated within an organic spice plantation and was beautiful.

Tea, as far as the eye can see
