Day 4

Day 4 : Goa - Karwar - Gokarn (150 km)

Life takes you down many paths, but the best ones lead to the beach.The waves of the sea help me get back to me. I think beach therapy is the best kind of therapy that heal all the pain.
What else do you want when you find such a historic place with scenic beauty.
Gokarn,  A popular pilgrimage destination for Hindus, it’s known for sacred sites like Mahabaleshwar Temple, which has a shrine dedicated to the deity Shiva.The main temple  houses what is believed to be original image of Lord Shiva's linga (Atmalinga).

Day 5

Hitting the road on an epic adventure is one of the best feelings.There's a lot to see along the way. Some of the best sights are the ones you haven't even planned , either. That's what makes road trips so special.

Day 6

Day 6 : Kozhikode - Kochi - Thiruvananthpuram - Kanyakumari  ( 490 km)

If someone called you crazy for doing it, you are on the right track!

It was tough day for me as I have driven whole day to reach kanyakumari. The road was narrow, full of traffic and  so many diversions. In between i visited Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple which is one of the must-visit places in Thiruvananthpuram, a fascinating work of art that you must include in your itinerary while visiting Thiruvananthpuram.

Day 10 : Ongole - Srisailam - Secunderabad ( 540 km)

I think the way I feel in temple shall become  my pattern to live life. Feeling blessed to visit Shree Mallikarjuna temple. It's priceless. It feels good to be lost in the right direction.

Day 12

Day 12 : Secundarabad - Aundha - Parli - Beed
( 565 km)

Driving is a spectacular form of amnesia. Everything is to be discovered, everything to be obliterated.    
 
It feels great when your mom changes your itinerary by  joining you  in between   especially for " Darshan " of  Parli Vaijnath Jyotirling.

Feeling blessed.

Aundha Nagnath (Nageshwaram) is supposed to be the eighth of the twelve jyotirlingas in India, an important place of pilgrimage. The present temple is said to have been built by the  Yadava dynasty and dates to 13th century.

Parli is a place where Lord Vishnu successfully helped the Devas to obtain Amrit. Therefore, this place is also known as ‘Vaijayanti”.
