It was an october month. When lush of rain waves over kerala. We a team of travellers have planned to have a drive over the outskirts of Idukki, but our final destination is Kolukkumala.

Everything set and we wandered over the outskirts and finally reached the basecamp, threshold of Kolukkumala, Sooryanelli.. The travel, till there was very comfortable and there we switched to Jeep.. Yeey.... have given all our life in the hands of drivers who was so cool while driving.. Off roading,.. Like a piece of cake.. While our heart paces ranged. First the offroading we experieced as roller coaster, but later on it was adventurous as well as enthusiastic. It takes a 1 hour duration and hence enjoyed later.

Finally to the top of world's highest tea plantation.

We stepped as the darkness spreads. The wind was howling and creates a spookiness. Least human beings can be seen there. Just had the dinner, we climb a hill to see the top sky view of tamil villages beneath which shines as diamonds with electric lights. As time passes, the darkness covers and wind howls. The plan shuts as we can't put a tent outside but we are lucky to have a tent inside the world's tallest tea factory, after spending on a camp fire.

Wind quits later and started at 5 am. Had a good tea, we went for a trek to catch the most beautiful view ever.. The cloud bed, which we waited to watch. We reached the hilltop at 6 am, but unfortunately due to heavy wind, it was eroded.but... We got the greatest gift ever.. The golden rays, embeded on the hilltops which coveres itself with morning mist.. It glows as gold and we too. With a faded rainbow.

Dear Kolukkumala,

You hide the cloudbed that we are awaited for. And we know its your call for us to come again. Like a hide and seek. Surely we will step on cloud on your crown
