The Sunrise at Kanyakumari..

Day 2:
It was the time to watch sunrise after the beautiful sunset we just watched. The sunrise point is nearby the rock shore mentioned in the previous post but you could enjoy it better if you go to the rock lane mentioned in the earlier post. That would give you a clear vision. The waves during the sunrise is quite gushing in fast so be cautioned!!

We got to the spot at around 5:45am and found a place to sit. Make sure you take an unobstructed view of the sunrise...it increases the feel....I got to hear that usually the sunrise as well as sunset remains cloudy around here and visualized it during sunrise...
As it is visible, this is the pic taken at 6:10am. The sun is actually already out but the view is obstructed by the cloudy sky above it. The sun rise atmosphere and the gush of waves was no doubt a must experience event.

Once we got a view of bright sky with sun visible partially...We went on searching for breakfast and found a place to eat in Leaves...:D

Had idli and vada along with tea/coffee. If you are not a south indian,may be you might not find the place so good to have breakfast. But yes , the tea and coffee were good.

So here's the view of how they preferred us to eat.It culture out here. Natural and habitual for them but some of us might find it odd.

Next we managed to get into the queue for ferry and boarded ferry finally by 8am. Reached Vivekanand rock memorial. A rock monument made in the memory of Swami VIvekanand who meditated here before going for the world conference. A scenic beauty place again. You could see the "TRIVENI SANGAM" from here when you look behind the Kavi Thiruvallur statue. You could identify the difference between colors of water. Might or might not find it so interesting.Depends on personal view...

The next thing we could do was to board a bus,train or taxi and rest in it....We chose taxi for enjoying site seeing en-route Trivandrum. The sight seeing journey described in depth in the next post...To keep this short and not bore you much with the topic...:D
