This blog is about our recent Monsoon trip to Rottikallu. A small resort nestled at the foothills of Western ghats. Instead of writing about our experience, I thought this time I will do it with pictures. As they say, 'A picture speaks thousand words'. :)
More information regarding the resort is given at the end.
