When the monsoons put on a show, trust me, Mahabaleshwar has got the best seats. And we waste no time in grabbing them every year.

Rains, fog, greenery… a visual treat that…

It was rainbowing atleast for an hour in the evening. What a delight to eyes!!! It was incredible. I ran back into my room to get my cam so that I could capture this mindblowing sight of the sun rays kissing the rainbow. Felt as if the heaven was coming down to earth to have sweet-nothings with…
