Subbu is promoted as Superintendent of Police of Kodagu district [popularly known as Coorg or Madikeri]. My hubby really makes me proud. I am also very happy with the place b'coz itz beautiful with hills and valleys, waterfalls and coffee plantations. Itz a tourist destination with a lot of resorts. Madikeri town is itself amidst the western ghats and the climate is cool throughout the year [no other place u'll find misty evenings in mid-summer] with heavy rainfall like Dakshin Kannada dist. where we stayed earlier. But it was hard to leave Puttur [D.K.] as it was the home where we spent our first days after marriage.
Our house here [Madikeri] is an old british bunglow, more than a century old but its well maintained and stands tall with itz high roofs and spacious halls, one place where u'll have fire places in every room. This house is actually named "Rose Banks" for itz sprawling gardens with lot of roses and other flowering plants, which always stand first at the annual flower show.
Some of the popular destinations in this place are the Abbey falls, Talakaveri (birth place of river cauvery) , Nagarahole wildlife sanctuary, Kaveri Nisarga Dhama ( nature reserve), Raja seat ( view point of the erstwhile king) and a whole lot of resorts for the honeymooners among the coffee plantations ( heard of orange county?).
