WHY MORNING BIKE RIDES ARE BEST TO FEEL HIGH VIBES IN THE WORLD?

This has to be one of the most memorable moments of my life. My friend and I decided to witness the sunrise in Kanyakumari, riding on his Royal Enfield. It was just the two of us embarking on this grand adventure, fueled by our shared passion for travel. The anticipation heightened as we rode through various destinations near Kanyakumari, mostly along the coastline. The direct routes we took, traveling on highways, filled us with inspiration and excitement.

We set out from our hometown at 5:45 AM, missing the sunrise we had hoped to see. The reasons behind our delayed start are a bit comical and best left untold. Nevertheless, we were determined not to let anything deter us. It typically takes about 1.5 hours by bike to reach Kanyakumari from our hometown. So, we headed straight there. The newly constructed flyover bridges and national highways in Nagercoil offered breathtaking views, with mountains providing a scenic backdrop.

After our ride, we reached Vattakottai Fort, a renowned historical fort situated along the Kanyakumari coastline. Despite our hunger and the time slipping away without a meal, we were eager to explore the fort. It was truly astonishing to see that, after all these years, the fort remains largely unchanged. The true essence of the fort can only be felt from within its walls, and it's commendable how well-maintained this small fort in Kanyakumari is.

From the left end of the fort, we had a clear view of the domes of the Thoothukudi atomic station. It's a place that evokes deep emotions. Whenever I travel to such places, I find myself missing certain people profoundly. This time, it was my other friends whom I missed dearly, recalling our previous visit to this fort together.

Feeling quite hungry, we decided to prioritize breakfast before continuing our journey. Our next destination was the popular Chothavilai beach. With the sun shining brightly and the midday heat intensifying, I found it challenging to continue with our plans for the day. I wasn't prepared for the heat, and my energy was waning. We decided to call it a day and head back to our hometown.

On our way from Vattakottai to Chothavilai, we passed through some scenic spots, including the famous Manakudi Backwater area. The bridge there is a notable landmark for travelers, offering breathtaking views of the surroundings. Unfortunately, we missed capturing these picturesque moments through photographs, but there's always a next time!
