Botanical Garden, Ooty

Near Shriya's new home in Udamandalam (Ooty) is the wonderful Botanical Garden

As you'll see, Gopal took all the pictures.  I managed to have a low blood sugar along the way, which really takes a lot out of me.  But it was really a fun venture.

Shriya's father, Vijay, walked us to the top of the hill where there is a tribal enclave.  Here is a tiny herd of buffalo.

This guy didn't like Gopal getting so close to take a picture and charged us.  Scared the heck out of me.

Right there is a small, traditional tribal temple.  It was really magical.
