Punta del Este: Vintage town in Uruguay peninsula

Image
Overview: The unspoilt Uruguayan peninsula of Punta del Este is all paradisiacal oceanic beaches, exotic sophistication, beautiful people and an ardent night scene. The Monaco of South America. In the last year there has been the shoots of urbanisation in the form of high rise building obscuring the sun, however. Tourist season varies wildly from totally deserted in the winter to very very crowded in the summer, unusual for a city this size.

Munnar: Photolog of Nature’s beauty

Image
Overview: We planned a trip to Munnar during the summer of 2009. A popular tourist destination needs no introduction, we checked into our resort early Friday morning. Having 3 full days at our disposal, we planned to explore this beautiful hill station as much as possible. Day 1: We went towards Mattupatty direction today. First up we visited the flower show, followed by the Photo point and the Honey bee nest.         Next was the Elephant arrival point where we had a ride on top of an elephant into the woods. At times it was scary when the path was too narrow and the elephant had to traverse through it.         Next we went to the Mattupatty dam and the view was majestic with bluish green waters with hills in the background. The scene was beyond words to describe so letting the pictures do the talking this time.     From there we went to the Kundaly lake where it started raining and added to the beauty of the place. The whole place around us looked green and lovely.     From Kunda
