Singara Chennai

Date : 16th March 2008
Time : Just Dawn

Posh KPN a/c Bus from Bangalore came to a halt, cleaner shouting kathipara, Guindy, CMBT . Its time for me to get down. with Auto walas as Valets  I got down the bus. After a dicker(Which I long forgot when I came to Bangalore),took an auto to adyar, the place I am put up.
Chennai ... the place I am back after three years. There are differences, lot of new buildings , better roads, better slang of language, typical tricycles, it was nice I felt good.

After gobbling the Breakfast from homely Guest house, set out to meet my Friends who are once "Close", now becoming "Old" from "Close". Had very nice time with them. went to CITI Center to catch up a movie but couldn't make it. Evening was spent in Besant Nagar Beach, with most of Aunties, Uncles, Grandpas and Grandmas, socializing.

To Office:
It was very great to take an auto again not without having a bargain, spoke to the security in lovable lovely Thamizh, getting clearance was a cake walk . Office was very posh as its a new and also which symbolizes the growth of chennai.

In short had nice time there, partying with my friends, and the verdict ...

I like chennai.

The Pilgrimage snaps

Srini - the great, the man who is a catalyst for fun being all around. A rare picture(you can never see him without a mush :) ) taken at the start of trip.















Serene view, on the way to Thirumala..

pictures taken with my 6230i










one more from Kali Gopuram ..
















An interseting shot,
a Govt Bus parked in "NO Parking" area, inspite of cautioning a fine of 500 Bucks ... thing prevalent in India,

A little insight would reveal the lethargy of the authorities and carelessness of drivers.

as a point of note, there were many violations like this in and around thirumala.
