Vagamon- Insanely Beautiful When it Rains

Sunday. Fun Day. All the Munchkins Want to Play

Oh! Not the usual laid back Sunday. My munchkins are super excited the minute we say trip. This time its Vagamon. One day trips are not really my favourites but hey "mommy be a sport" like they read my thought bubble. 

So we get the location on GPS, hallelujah! and the journey kick starts. Bad roads are never a dampener when you can slow down, spot some chai (tea) shop, make chit chat about the climate, get hold of yumms and carry on from there. Finally with the destination just around the corner the excitement is at its epitome. Plus Google suggests Top 5 things to do in Vagamon and all of us are looking for signboards. Well we realised we are not the only ones who took to Google. 

Vagamon we were wowed by the vast expanse of nature's splendour. The simple climb up the barren hills (motta kunnu) and rolling down the grass clad hills it was truly crazy. The pine forest was like a private maze, literally lost and found. We would stop at every little creek to see where it leads to. Stop at hairpins to take in the view. Yes we did spot a waterfall end of it all but sigh! the sign board says "Entry Restricted". We did miss out the boating and the suicide point which we really wanted to see. They usually have paragliding from the suicide point and how cool is that.

No not again. Rain rain go away my munchkins are on a roll today. Of course they want to be out running on the hills. But mother nature had a plan B, yup it started pouring cats and dogs when we were on the trail to the suicide point. Soaked, drenched, famished and under the spell of awesome mother nature. Lightning bolts like the wrath is on us. Run the God's have gone crazy, Had to stop at a small shack and yes chai and biscuit to the rescue again. So we call it a wrap there. Not as planned but not bad at all.
