After a bit of relaxation and refreshments, we headed to Ooty Botanical Gardens where we almost spent some solid 2 hours and we could witness varieties of Fauna reserve. We were awestuck when informed that there were more than 2,500 plants species maintained in that place. It was around 4.30 in the evening when we reached the Boating Lake. Like a professional Sailor, many of us Hired a 4 Seater Pedal Boat and started our Boating voyage. But once we started pedalling, the actual difficulty in it was felt by us.
We took a Mini Train to go around the Lake Garden. By then, it was Dusk and we returned to our Cottage. The Camp-Fire at Night was one of the memorable experiences in our Tour.
At the Early Morning next day, we were waken up by the greetings of Humming Birds, Bulbuls and Mynas in the Big Garden that surrounded our Cottage. A Couple of Unfriendly Monkeys threatened to enter into our Rooms. After Breakfast, we were all set to visit MUDUMALAI WILD-LIFE SANCTUARY. With high expectations of Spotting Huge Elephants and Wild Bisons, we entered into the sanctuary. But to our Disappointment, we just managed to spot some Deers and Weasels. Then we headed to a small town called Coonoor, a small town near Ooty and had our Lunch.
The Botanical Garden at Coonoor was much more Fascinating than the one we saw in Ooty. We spent around 3 Hours at the Coonoor Botanical Garden. Dolphin's Nose, Sims park were the other places being visited by us and we headed to Ooty again to retire for the Night. This time there were no Camp-Fire as we ran out of Energy and we were adviced to take some very good rest by our Tour-Guide as we would be experiencing an Adventurous Trip to Dodabetta, Avalanche Lake and Pykara Falls.
