I reached the central railway station around 7′o clock next morning.I had the printout of an email which suryan chettan sent me earlier,with the three different ways to reach my destination.I choosed to go by bus.

I went to Parrys busstand.Then called suryan chettan from there.He instructed me to get another bus to thuraipakkam.I obeyed.I reached Thuraipakkam after one hour . I didnt know where to go,which direction to walk.I walked and found out the ICICI-Indian Bank ATM pairs.Then called Sreenathettan .He said to stay there before the ATM for one person to come and pick me.It was Bijoyettan who came in an Activa and pick me to Snehasadanam.Our cook chechi gave me hot tea and iddly.Susmithettan who was sleeping when i came, woke up after some time and drop me to my office after some time.It was my first day with omnex.

For a couple months,i had been planning to visit some places in the weekend.but couldnt execute it on the right time.but this time ,it happened.but not as per the Plan’s i have .It was muthumari’s marriage reception here in a Hotel in ECR.we all went there.before entrering the Reception hall ,we went to the nearby Sai Temple.It was really a Super place.very calm and quite environment.the parking side was quite well organised.we couldnt findout any difficulty there as there were lot of space available.The place is having plenty of Tree.we Entered the Temple premise. visited diffent idols.Then finally we went to the large hall where Saibaba’s Big idols is being worshipped.It was a Big one, made up of Marble.One man(looks like the saint) was distributing PRASADAM and VIHBOOTHI.we had it.The Front side of this main temple is having a large hall where people can sit and pray.i found some people there.Enlarged photos of different Senior saints who propogated this Sai ideas to the world,were hanged there in the walls.we had a look on that.then there was one Tree ,where we can tie a twine there.devottes believe ,it will fulfill their ambitions.we all did it.
Let Sai make my dreams true.Then we went to Reception hall.congratulated the couples.had some snaps with them.then had food.around 9′o clock,we left the place.on the way, there cam an idea of going to Pondycheri.

and we decided to go ! i dont had even one rupees with me @ that time.we had petrol from a pump for Rs 600 and started our trip.Road was super.so our car was moving around 90-100 Speed.Suryanji
was quite ok with the route as he went there 3-4 times.almost after one hour,Rains starts.So heay rain!Sreenathji,who was driving @ that time managed to drive it carefully .we started singing some
lyrics.and finally around one’o clock,we reaced Pondichery.Road was parallel to the beach.even though it was too late,we could find people strolling there in the beach.we stopped there some where.get down from the car.had a DARK view of the Sea.Some beggers were sleeping there is the sea shore.

WE ALL EXCEPT MADHUVETTAN(he is the cameraman)

we went to madhuvettan’s friend’s house.he send us the Address.we managed to found out the exact street.but coulnt findout House number 33.Finally we called hime. he came to the roaad and guided us to his house.

THE GHOST HOUSE WHERE WE RESIDE

NOT A GHOST ,BUT MEEEE
It was a very very big house where atleast 100 People can stay easily.he was staying alone there.there was some construction going on the ground floor.he was staying on the 1 st floor,where he arranged accomodation for us.we all slept in the same room(That much Big it was).In the morning madhuvettan and sreenathji bought milkmyself prepared Tea for all.The house is having 6 bath rooms.3 per each floor.
but nothing was in a good condition.only one in the ground floor was usable.we all had a ONE -AT-A _TIME _OPEN BATH in the groundfloor.everyone had to wait for there turn.There was only one towell.we left there around 11′o clock.then just moved here and there .then stopped in a hotel there and had our lunch.from there we went to Arabindo ahram,There was a silenec maintained in the street.we found a queue there to enter the ashram,one man was controlling the queue in such a way that only 10 or 13 people will be allowed to enter inside at a time.we all switched off our mobiles we stayed in the queue for around 45 minutes.Then entered inside.The ashram premise was small in terms of area.But maintained well.The main attraction of the ashram is the place is Aurabindo’s SAMADHI place. The place were decorated with flowers as well.everyone was maintaining silence there.we too followed.we could hear the sounds from small birds.So calm and quite.The environment was super.thereafter we went to the building.The main part is a librabry.From there you can buy books of the arabindo trust.we left the ashram around 3.30 then we just travelled via the beach road.we stopped beofre a sea shore ice cream parlor and had Icecreams.within half an hour we left the place.we reached home around 8.00 PM .Thanks God,IPL match was not yet started at that time

our guys started singing and dancing ! road was quite super.but our driver,Mr Sampath was not at all competent for the ROAD ! he never raised the speed to 60 + !

i dont remember when i felt into deep sleep .i occupied one of the four seats in the back side
we reached madurai in the morning.there was a DHABA,we had bath and all there,had breakfast.then obviosly some SNAPS too…. again travel…
our driver had a couple of movies with him. we saw one and a half !

the time become around 4 when we reached Tirunalveli.no stops there. we went to PAPANASAM
as per the instruction of a local friend, we went to the top ,where we could see the DAm and all.from the entry, it tooks another one hour to reach the DAm,
the journey was through a forest area.it was quite Super.forest in the sense of trees and all.no wild life animals except monkeys !

VIEW FROM OUR VAN

WE ALL EXCEPT WiKY,(he is behind the Camera)

we went for boating in the Dam.the guy who was selling entry tickets for boating told us that we shouldnt get down @ the other end for taking bath as the time is already late.
there were two options for boating,one ,general,u have to pay rs 20 per head.but they will start the boat
only the boat is full.the second option was to pay a total of 300 Rs and we 8 can go exclusively.no need to wait for anyone.we opted for the second one.our plan was to
offer some bribe to the boat driver and get down @ the other end.But we failed to do it.Boat driver loves to have money from us.
but he was a bit afraid if he could lost his job,if any policemen saw us,since it is already late time .

AFTER THE BOATING

we become quite desperate.boat driver suggested another nearby place for us to have bath.we had to walk around 10 mints via the forest.quite thrilling.we reached another place
where there was some other people taking bath.not much rush.in a couple of minutes we were ready in the SWIMMING SUITES.what a chilling water .it was very nice

around 6′o clock, we started our return trip.it took more than one hour to reach tirunalveli town.
our accomodation was arranged by stallin earlier @Raja Towers.we 8 People took 2 Rooms.
i stayed along with Sreenathji,Joseph sir and Suryanchettan.Raja,Vicky,Aravind and Senthil were in the other room. after bath , we went out for dinner. came back to the room around 11′o clock.i was the first person to slept in that group on that Day !

i had set an alaram on my mobile to get up @5.30. Alaram worked correctly. but i didnt responded properly ! i stopped the alaram and continued my job ! .but i couldnt sleep more. i heard sreenathji’s sound.he was getting ready to take bath. i woke up and had bath and all once he finished. remaining 8 guys were still sleeping @ that time.we called their mobile.but no one took .we tried several times.but no response……………… eventually Aravind took the phone and told us
“We are not coming right now. You guys carry on.We will get ready soon and reach there within one hour”.

we left them and started walking to the MANDAPAM.it was @ a walkable distance of 15 mints hardly.we met muthumari and stallin ,congratulated them and had Breakfast.
after 2 hours our team reached the MANDAPAM. we all had some photosession with the couple.

we came back to Hotel.Joseph sir and Senthil went for some purchasing and they returned within one hour.we again started ……………………………

we decided to go to PAPNASAM again where we went yday.we bought lunch from a hotel in Tirunalveli town. It tooks almost one and a half hour to reach the hill station.

DURING LUNCH

we found out an ideal place to sit together for having lunch. once the lunch is over,our guys started jumping to the water .It was really a nice place.we spend the whole day there.i took some good snaps of our guys

around 6.30 we left PAPANASAM.but we couldn’t reach home in the morning as per our expectation ,since our driver was not at all ready to increase the speed.

Really a wonderful Trip .
