Picturesque Yercaud

This summer I took a trip to Yercaud with my family. We took a flight to Coimbatore and after the pleasant flight, Coimbatore felt like stepping into an oven!! But the climate became better by evening. We took the local state transport bus to Salem from the central bus stand as I always make it a point to experience the local means of transport. The frequency and network of these buses is pretty good and they are DVD coaches. The bus dropped us at Salem after a 4 hour journey which was spent in watching Tamil films and videos of Rajnikant's songs. After having dinner in Salem we took a cab to Yercaud. On the way up to Yercaud there are 20 hair-pin bends and by the time we reached it was pretty late.
