Spice Plantation and Wildlife Park
... Kerataka and entered Kerala. Gopal said if we were lucky we would see wild elephants in the park. Not terribly far into the park there was wild excitement at the sight of five elephants. Gopal was congratulating us on our good fortune before we noticed the chains on their legs. We did see wild spotted deer with langour monkeys overhead. The monkeys drop food from the trees and the deer are underneath eating the droppings. Gopal wanted to know if we wanted ...
In the Western Ghats

The drive through the 'Junglebook-like' forest of the National Park in the early morning sun and the lifting fog was simply gorgeous.

Alleppey backwaters and mystery of full hotels
... negotiation can go when the boat is idle for an hour and a half (and hence the boatman has zero leverage), and we have no choice (in our heads) but to make that boat trip. Backwaters were great - serene and relaxing. We stocked with beer and the boatwala with some eggs. The cook came by and offered omelettes.
