Pictures of my quaint little town, taken with Nokia N-97 - 5 mpx and Nokia N-70 - 2 mpx mobile cam. Karwar is the Head-Quarter of North Kanara district in Karnataka state, India, on the shores of the Arabian Sea. Surrounded by Western Ghat (mountains) on the East and South, the River Kali to the North, and the Arabian Sea, which comprises a chain of Islands.

Monsoon lashes Karwar....
The 14 days of non-stop monsoon rains have lashed Karwar town, caused quite a bit of erosion, and water logging eveywere.... The Clouds had descended over Karwar to personally see to it that Karwar recieved its fair share of Monsoons... A hydro-powered dam about 200 kms from Karwar recorded 25 feet deep water in just 9 days !! And other dams near Karwar have gone from Empty to Near Full withinthis period.... And thats why I couldnt post pictures here on my Blog !! :-)

Looks as though the water is making a mess of things. I remember the monsoon when I lived in Kuala Lumpur in the 60s; we don't get rain like that in the UK
Yup, it's that time of the year here too. But thank goodness, nothing that's lasted more than a week yet.
Hope the weather gives you a little break!
Namaskara! Great capture of the monsoon rains! Sometimes we don't have enough rain and then suddenly it's too much! How far is Karwar from Bengaluru? Dhanyavadagalu
dho dala.
