Old Aanavandi through the high ranges of Wayanad

Travelling by bus in India is always great fun. Kerala being densely populated with people everywhere offers you that extra bit of excitement and fun. Here I am travelling from Calicut City in Calicut district, north Kerala to Kalpetta in Wayanadu district through the beautiful ghats road in the mountainous areas of Wayanadu and Calicut districts.

This is a bus run by the K.S.R.T.C (Kerala Road Transport Corporation) and these drivers are true masters of thier craft. Look at him drive through those tricky ghat roads!

What is Travel?

Travel is the movement of people between relatively distant geographical locations, and can involve travel by foot, bicycle, automobile, train, boat, bus, airplane, or other means, with or without luggage, and can be one way or round trip. Travel can also include relatively short stays between successive movements.

Reasons for traveling include recreation, tourism or vacationing, research travel the gathering of information, visiting people, volunteer travel for charity, migration to begin life somewhere else, religious pilgrimages and mission trips, business travel, trade, commuting, and other reasons, such as to obtain health care or waging or fleeing war or for the enjoyment of traveling. Travellers may use human-powered transport such as walking or bicycling; or vehicles, such as public transport, automobiles, trains and airplanes.

Travel by water often provided more comfort and speed than land-travel, at least until the advent of a network of railways in the 19th century. Airships and airplanes took over much of the role of long-distance surface travel in the 20th century.
