Day 2 - Kodaikanal lake

Now when we had visited Devil's Kitchen , The Pillar Rock , The Pine forests , and 14 other places to complete the kodaikanal trip , the end of day was yet another surprise. Boating ... and in this cool cool place . The Sun had shone through out the day as if welcoming us with open arms ...Come to Paradise .. to heavens ... to Kodaikanal ... seems i am falling in love with this place over and over again ... The sun and clouds played through out the day, not to be victorious over one other , but like two kids playing selflessly, when winning is not the most important factor , but playing is.



And This was last lost way , when i was standing in middle .. is it over .. no it is not ... The Rose Garden and temple are still to be visited. But they will come later after this pleasurable boat ride.

I am trying to come to the end of day but so many things and so many scenic and natural beauties that my mind keeps on deviating. One more thing i wanna show is this path. Such a magestic royal feeeling i got while i was wondering how good would it be to be lost. to be friends with so many trees , so many of them , like guarding an empire , and dare not enter any enemy , but for friends ,so full of fun and joy.

So finally we are in Boat house , and here is our hunk back to business. smiling and giggling and getting photographed ( apart from being paddling the boat). The ambience was very good , and we were there for 30 min. though i would still rate it lower than Pookote lake in wayand "http://deepakg83.blogspot.com/2007/01/new-year-3-pookote-lake.html". In case u wanna see the beauty of that lake. The real beauty because it had weeds , lillies and natural. This one was too clean.

And This is lake is no doubt the man made lake , and a very well maintained, though one might not prefer to move in normal boats but in Swan Boats , which costs extra 10 bucks, and seem to be pretty attracive. The boat made a lot of sound , seemed like moving spades in dry land. Except for the hell of noise the boat made , and the wear tear sound , and the extra effort we had to put in after titing day , those 30 min were very fine , though i cud have done without that also. But the breeze was too good.
Whaatever it was , added to the kodaikanal hospitality and we all loved it and cherish it :)
