Day 8 – Back into the jungle …

Just a short drive today, and so we were gifted a lie in and late breakfast, which was wonderful!

Following another gorgeous local thali en-route through rural India (£2 for both of us this time!), we were pleased to make our destination by 3.30pm with the promise of a day off tomorrow and so chance to relax, recharge and spend time with the rest of the group. We’re all pretty weary by this stage of the journey.

What a great place to stay. It’s a jungle retreat called Jungle Hut, run by the ex-Indian National Rally champion Vikram Mathias, just inside the region of Tamil Nadu

I treated myself to a massage before dinner (£12) which was a relaxing way to start the evening. Dinner had a hint of familiar foods which was great. The food over here has been wonderful, but I never thought that I would be so pleased to see broccoli, potatoes and garlic bread amongst the curry dishes!
