It's Pudichery not Pondichery

-
I don't know until I visited the Pondicherry, that it renamed from Pondichery to Pudichery. while in school I remember that Pondichery is one of the Seven Union Territories. After grown, I came to know that Liquor is cheap in Pudichery. Now, I came to know, it is a nice place to float in the Sea-Bay.

Dated: 20-4-2012

Troop: Room mates in Chennai.

Started our journey with preplanned shorts on body and bags on the back. Like this....

 Reached Auroville Beach point after struggling a lot with the hunger, then I became the Photographer after reaching there.









 The best point here is, 'no problem' for the guys who don't know swimming. Of Course, I am one of those. We got the life jackets, just floated for an hour in the mid of the sea.



Aprama Paakalam....!!!

I started by 10 from my room. First reached to Kapileshwar Temple in Mylapore. Here is the history of Temple(Courtesy: Wiki) Kapaleeshwarar Temple is a temple of Shiva located in Mylapore , Chennai in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu . The form of Shiva's wife Parvati worshipped at this temple is called Karpagambal (from Tamil, "Goddess of the Wish-Yielding Tree"). The temple was built around the 7th century CE and is a good example of Dravidian architecture. According to the Puranas , Shakti worshipped Shiva in the form of a peacock, which is why the vernacular name Mylai ( Mayilāi ) was given to the area that developed around the temple - mayil is Tamil for "peacock".

Dated: 16/12/2017 Crew: Madhu & Me As usual, the trip plan w as also born a day before of our journey. But we were so late, there were no bookings for to-and-fro of our journey, but we made it somehow or else I couldn't write this post. Our journey started with the Unreserved Coach of BANGALORE MAIL(Train NO - 12657, Dep Time - 23:15 Arrival Time - 04:31). On that day, the trains, before and after of our train are over-crowded and late running. Unfortunately, our train had hit with large mass. Of some luck, we got the seat for at least to sit. We reached on-time in Bengaluru and caught the MYSORE EXPRESS(Train No - 16231, Dep Time - 05:10, Arrival Time - 08:40) at 5.30. The climate was so chill, where we turned from the open un-buttoned clothes to the tycoon shivering for the cold. We stepped out in Mandya Railway Station at 7.30 AM. It is the nearest railway station for reaching the Chennakesava Temple. We got the bus to T.Narsipura on the way of...
