1st Sunrise of 2010 at KanyaKumari
1. Journey through Satyamangalam : 29th Dec 2009
• Experience the fog on the way to Kerala
Starting from Bangalore at 5.00AM and only having Destination in mind was making us feel superb. As we started covering miles, we started to feel more and more beautiful because of the Mother Nature. Riding through the chillness on Mysore road and taking a bypass towards Chamarajnagar was too good. It was even more wonderful when we took a break to have our breakfast at around 10.00AM (as usual bread and jam,companion to travellers)on a plain road which was like no-man's land and thankfully no monkeys being around to snatch our food. Half an hour break and geared up again to hit the road.We felt really blessed as soon as we reached Satyamangalam after our breakfast. The feeling was getting more cuddled and was getting nurtured by Mother Nature. More the visibility was getting diminished more was the fun, the feel of freshness and chirping of birds (though unable to c) and more, all were gifted to us by the naughty fog.
• Ghats section – hairpin bend
Satyamangalam ghat has 27 hairpin bends. One can get the real feel of biking here when getting descend, capturing photos, seeing large trucks getting stuck, some cool jeeps just ripping the stuff. And what else can be better than the struggle to ride bike amidst the thick fog. And gradually get to view the superb nature the more you descend and more you escape from naughty fog.
