Ooty and Mysore (Mhari)

(Mhari)  29th of Jan 2011
We are now in Mysore which is a welcome break, far from Ooty's dust and dirt. Mysore is still a city, but the main streets are kept “clean”. All the garbage is put in neat piles in the back streets, then the cows come along and eat half of it the city gets round to burning all the rest. That's how all the posh cities do it.
Ooty was good. Especially the trek we did. Which at times had a very similar terrain to the rocky portages we do in Ontario. Except there were no trees, no sounds of rapids and even though we could see for tens of miles there were no lakes. Which is funny because we were ten km away from Ooty which has a(n) (artificial) lake.
The only problem with Ooty is that it is very dusty and dirty and a bit smelly.
