Not all of them sleeping too much, Got up quickly in the morning started doing our chores. We want to left munnar at 11 AM. Since some places are left to see and want to go to Cochin in time. Funniest thing was that, we offered bathroom for the driver but he refused to have a bath, we felt sorry for Selwyn(AHAHAHA) since he was sitting next to him. In the beginning we thought the driver be so cooperative but later he shows some agony and frustration indirectly. We had the breakfast in the same hotel, where we had the late lunch at previous evening. Some of the breakfast are not convincing for Logesh. He ordered for dosa, he was not too happy with that, since the mix of dosa was not fermented. In the cold hilly areas, during morning we believed that dosa or idly mixes are hard to get fermented because of the weather. After we shopped a bit, buyed some flavored teas and lemons. Sujan walked through more shops to buy lemons at low-cost. Meanwhile room boys keep coming and asked about vacating room, I was distressed. Any how guys are not caring much about it and we packed our sack and started at 11AM.



We took some photographs in the busy market area blocking the bridges, fortunately no one was complaining. We went to some private area and went to the magnificent water falls. The roads are too small to travel but we through it. We reached beautiful scenery area.

The falls was so wild, so enthusiastic, and so vulnerable got the huge mouth, roaring a bit. Really we enjoyed that moment. We had the tea in the hill top, venkat was not too happy about it. Yes he has some reasons for that, since tea per cup costs Rs15/=.

Logesh was crying for photo where, none of us were interested to take a snap of him. He was giving some gentle man pose and waiting for vijay to take a snap, where as, vijay closed his camera shutter and went off. Lately, vijay acknowledges his cry and took a snap. We gave some lunatic poses and from there we started to Ernakulam alias Cochin.

In Munnar we are not able to see typical keralities. Since the place is mixed with malayalee and tamil population. Everybody speaks tamil there, so I don’t find any difference from tamil nadu. Journey started at 1PM we are not intending to take food since we are going down from the hill. But sujan was not that much convincing, I think I need not explain to you that, why sujan was that much convincing. He may be right we should have took some little amount food without oils etc. The road is much wider than the previous one, but in a zigzag way. Everybody felt the vomiting sensation; even lemons are not helping us. On the way we are able to see some beautiful houses are built, that houses may not be in typical kerala house. Those houses are quite modern looks and so beautiful. Lately around 4.30PM we entered to cochin. Wow now I’m able to see typical malayalee peoples, unfortunately or fortunately we was not able to see typical kerala girls. See how unlucky we are(:(). I can see lots of Todi shops in Cochin than munnar. Locals advised us to not to take any drink from todi shops. Obviously we are not intending to have a drink. We reached a restaurant at 5PM, "not again" we are so late for lunch. Waiter in the restaurant bugging us by saying “This is tea time in kerala” I got tensed and amused. I don’t want to quarrel but wants some food. We are so dried out of food. Please don’t ask about sujan! Any how he was not complaining about it. Good boy isn’t it? Alright! We filled our stomach and heading towards the hotel where we want to stay. Unlike Munnar, in cochin not many are speaking in tamil. We asked for the route to the security, he speaks quickly in Malayalam. After some struggle we understood some thing. I suspect the driver knows the route but he refused to show us. For the past two days we did nothing bad to him. We offered food and money. Its ok! never mind the little slothful fellow!!!After some struggle we found Mahatma Gandhi road and able to find the hotel with the help of the locals. They were so nice to us. We found the hotel and breathed better. On the way I was able to see mammoth shopping malls. Lately, I came to know that the entire mall is for jewelry. Vijay said even people comes from coimbatore and shops here. Yes! He is right Cochin is so commercialized lots of shops, lots of traffic, lots of congestion.We stayed in the room rested better and as usual we played cards and watched telugu movie pokiri. Really fun it was, I don’t see telugu movies but I know how the story line is! etc. I can see barely lots of heroics in the movie, actually we watched it for Illeana. After some time vijay’s friend Jomet Jose who stays in kerala came to see him and chatted for long time. He spends really good time with us. He said about hotels will be closed at 9PM or 9.30PM. So in a hurry went to a hotel near by. We went by car, now also kannan refused to have a food. Alright leave crook! We went in and tasted some non-veg foods especially fish. Actually I want to taste fish there, since kerala is famous for sea foods. After dinner we went to the beach, quite a beautiful view from the road.


City falls in sleep very quickly. We back from sea area to room around 11.30PM. Later vijay and jomet along with sujan went to jomet’s office and to Cochin port. Vijay said that they came back at 2.30AM. Rest of us were in sound sleep.
