    hi,

    Coorg is really nice place for tourism. As you are going with your son carry all the medicines required for general problems like cold,cough, fever, there are few ointments for bug bite like flutibact, some electral powder like rebalanz for kids. I have never been there but i have heard this is really small place and very cold too, current conditions i dont know. But carry warm clothes for your son in case you find it very cold. we can manage for few hours but sometimes kids need warm clothes urgently.. some sweater or jacket will be ok.. Carry few thing thinking about rain. Wish you enjoy your trip.
    tc,
    Padma

    coorg is famous for its spices esp Coffee,vanilla, pepper plantations; these are reasonably cheaper too;
    one of my friends but all these; filter coffee powder, normal coffee powder, black pepper, vanilla pods, honey.
    they stayed in a coffee estate which had a home stay option.

    Check out www.iyris.in its a homestay and the people running it are amazingly hospitable. From there you can visit Nisargadhama, Golden temple, Tibetian colony, Dubare, Madikeri.
