Monsoon in Munnar

Rolling down the window, you see  an unending swathe of lush green tea  plantations hugging the gentle Munnar slopes. Thick storm clouds, ready to burst open and unleash yet another deluge, playfully tease the mountain tops. A transient waterfall gushes in the distance and you can hear a rumble from deep within the skies. Suddenly, unexpectedly, a sliver of sunshine darts through the dark canopy of clouds and the delicate arch of a giant rainbow momentarily graces the valley, turning the scene from ominous to surreal, just like that.
