View from above Munnar 1, originally uploaded by © Frame Maker.

This was part of the view from the balcony of our hotel up the side of a mountain above Munnar. We idled there for most of a day because there was a general strike going on. Our tour leader said the strikers were preventing any vehicles from moving on the road. It was a cloudy day with the sun peeking through now and then. This photo captures one of the now and thens.
