The Hill Stations of Kerala 'When the heat is on the plains, and the time to get away from the crowd, came for a vendezvous with nature. Inhale the bracing mountain air, relax in peace, stroll down winding paths, marvel at the beautiful views, enjoy the profusion of flowers in bloom. Kerala's exotic appeal is centered in the highland area of the Western Ghats. Rising to an average height of 1520 m , it houses rich flora and fauna.' thekeralatoday.com

Mohan: Travel back in time to the rich palaces of the Kings of yore to be crowned a king. Lose yourself amidst cool, tranquil monuments. Marvel at the exquisite architecture. The intricate stone carvings. The delightful fables. Wander around enchanting museums. Explore the ruins of ancient forts.'? That is very nice Mohan, talking about the GLORY that WAS INDIA. Where CAN I FIND a decent toilet and drinking water? That is my pressing problem. I feel very DIPY today.<g> Walk on any Downtown streets . We saw more human waste on the side walks than I saw anywhere. Fashionable districts are no exception. We saw human urine passed on the marble walls and the telltale of evidence and the stench on the side walk that go with that. When U walk on Streets, U wondered about all those black 1/2" round black stains. Those black giant dots are blackened gum residues spit on the sidewalk. Go to a movie house: U step on pop corn, hot dog stubs, grey poopon- (sp?)mustard, streams of soda, and wads of sticky gum. Go to fashionable areas. You have to do CHACHA & dance around the dogdos. When U come out of the moviehouse, U see teenagers performing what their mothers cautioned them against, in the recesses between walls. Avoid Blind Alleys, same encounter. Try to avoid sidewalks around pubs; VOMITUS, AND OTHER BIODEGRADABLE DISCHARGES ABOUND. If a homeless man asks for a quarter, give him that quarter; otherwise he will spit on your wind shield and talk about your near and dear, not a nice thing to hear. Walk around and inside parks: Condoms Galore, Grass Butts Galore. When the TOILET OVERFLOWS IN A COLLEGE CAMPUS, it is NOT THE BIODEGRADABLE HUMAN WASTE THAT DID THE JOB, BUT THE NONBIODEGRADABLE CONDOMS. Don't go behind any restaurant, fashionable or otherwise, U will see rotting food & garbage and the stomach-wrenching stench will make U vomit all the food U ate and paid for by cash or credit card. Cancel all your travel plans, when the city U are visiting is paralyzed by Sanitation workers' strike. It is GARBAGE GALORE. When there is a dog show in the park, DON't Go to that park that day. When there is any Ethnic Day parade in any big city with an added attraction with animals like Pachyderms, horses etc, DON'T walk behind the animals. U will for sure get sprayed with biodegradable materials. Don't take a dining table & eat on the side walk open area in front of the restaurant. The Restaurant does not guarantee food & drinks free from pigeon / bird droppings. The restaurant does not guarantee freedom from a homeless person gawking at your food, even if your date is more GAWKABLE. Don't let your children do pee pee under a boardwalk in any ocean city. The cops are under the boardwalks taking a respite from hot sun, munching on donuts. Don't forget to tip the bar tender, because If U don't, the next beer U get will be the BRANDNAME SINK BEER collecting at the bottom of the sink. Don't drive behind a sewage truck. Don't leave your condoms on the beach sand, because the birds choke on them and die. Stand in front of UNISEX public bathroom and stop anybody, if your wife or children are using it. Stand at a respectable distance if you are talking to a stranger; he may spit while talking or may have halitosis. Don't tell a waiter that U are a doctor or a lawyer, either they want a free consults or they may have a grudge against your profession and U don't know whether U are eating what U ordered.
