A nice cuppa chai





A dramatic 5 hour bus journey into the mountains of Munnar...we broke down and had an accident ! no one on the bus got hurt or really bothered that much so it was quite funny. Munnar is a little hill town and has the worlds highest growing tea estate. It was nice to get away from the city and have some cool mountain air full of nice tea and spice smells. I managed to do some nice hikes when it was not raining. The scenery was breath taking. If fort cochin was the Venice of india then Munnar is the Lake Districet of India. I stayed for three lovely days sipping a variety of the best tasting teas I have ever had (Masalla, mint, cardamon, vanilla...) all fresh and fantastic.

So, what was your favourite type of tea? Did you buy some to send home? Sounds like a perfect place to chill for a few days. Love H&G XXX
