what is heard

Awesome, marvelous, fantastic, mind blowing. These words don’t suffice to pen about Coutraalam, the master of falls in Tamil Nadu. Just thought, these words would be the one to post after the trip. But, the words are disappearing.

6:30 AM. Pretty clear morning. Childish air blowing everywhere around the place. Mother of green blessed the place without limit. People with shorts and towel covered top were walking with smiles. Started wondering, my intelligent plan of going in early morning would make myself to enjoy the less crowded coutraalam. Damn, my plan washed out. I could guess the crowd in the main falls. On the way, there were many (in fact, a lot) of shops with herbals, ayurvedic oils, toys, textile shops (with most of shorts and towels) and most important Coutraalanathar temple. Our ancestors are great in many ways; this temple is one among that. As expected, the feel of the famous saaral is very near. The melodious sound and the drizzle. Wow. This natural effect, nobody can reproduce, expect almighty.

Now, the showtime of main falls. One by one, all of my above dissolved. Know what, the people factor presented me a disaster. The early morning time, where these people had come from?

Now, I am moving inside the crowd. This is under assumption; at least I will get the glimpse of the falls. I had a bad assumption. I didn't get the one what I expected. They don't let you inside, if you are waiting outside. If you mix with them, you will be oil massaged, put inside the falls for few minutes and automatically pushed outside without your knowledge. Everything is automated by people factor. These people will do the above for you.

You could see many people hold soap bars with them. What an Irony? The water that falls down has anything lesser than hamam, rexona and lux. Probably those people could answer.

Trip was an excellent one, except the angry on government, which hasn't taken prompt actions to make the people to enjoy the nature's shower.
