Parson Valley, Ooty

You have to be really adventurous to plan a team trip to Ooty in the month of December.

Last weekend, we had been to Parson Valley , a good 1-1/2 hrs from Ooty. I would recommend it to people who prefer isolation. I just saw 5-6 people (apart from our crowd) in all of two days.

Life was definitely different - no Cell Phones (signal not available), no TV, no Internet, ..no husband also (oops.. summa oru flow-le vandhuduchu;-))

We reached the resort cum farmhouse on friday afternoon. Evening we went to the all famous - Roja climax bridge & Porti mund dam

Saturday, we were trekking over the meadows n hills. You outrightly feel small when compared to the over-powering Nature around. Felt good that not many people are aware of this place..u can save it for some for time.

Sunday, we were back to ooty, did the customary boating, shopping and soon we were hurtling towards coimbatore.

I'm in no mood to worry abt the mild frost bite on my nose..the experience was worth it.

Some pictures for your eyes only:

But man..how do u survive the winter in US..I couldnt manage ooty itself.

winter survival in US involves lots of layers of clothing. :)
