Shimoga – Madikeri – Kannur
Catching the bus from Shimoga early in the morning to Madikeri up in the hills. Passing lots of fields of corn.
Coming into Madikeri. Pictures of passers-by. Stop.
Climbing a hill above my hotel. Taking someone’s dogs for a walk. The dump is on top of the hill, garbage goes over the cliff.
Tourist ride to the top of a big mountain in a Mahindra jeep. Mandalpatti at 1700 meters.
Catching another early bus to Virajpet from Madikeri. I had to change buses at Virajpet. This is the interstate special speed bus that I caught.
Interstate bus – Karnataka to Kerala
Passing through Brahmagiri Wildlife Sanctuary. It is full-on rainforest jungle that stretches for miles and miles. Very wild country.
Road through Brahmagiri jungle
The bridge over the river just before Iritty. I am now in Kerala.
So many tuk-tuks lined up in this town. I have never seen so many tuk-tuks.
And a lineup of gawdy buses. All dolled up like pox-doctor’s clerks.
Finally arriving in Kannur, having lunch at the bus stand. Searching for my hotel with the tuktuk driver. Totally in the wrong place when it is all sorted eventually.
Present participles are ending.
Still traveling! Impressive!!
