Trip to Wayanad - Day 1

On the way to Wayanad

I had never visited this place before, even though I am a Keralite.  And currently living in Bangalore, which is only at a distance of 350km from Wayanad,  I always wanted to visit this place .

Visit to Lalbagh On a Republic Day

  It was a Republic Day, we were having nap after lunch. Then suddenly somebody suggested about a flower show going on at Lalbagh.  Even though we are staying at Bangalore, we rarely visited that place. So we decided that we will go there and see what is happening out there.

I took a number of snaps of the surroundings.

Dragon Fly

  I was at my native, in kannur, sitting idle in a chair thinking what to do next.  I saw a dragon fly resting on a wire in the sun. I thought, ok you can do your sunbathing, and i will take some photos of you. I took my camera, and clicked some snaps.

   This dragon fly didn't fly away, but patiently posed for my photo shoot. Here are some snaps.
