A Day at mahabalipuram

Oops.. Its pongal….. Everyone went to their native place to celebrate it. Only cursed creatures lied here. I was proud (?) to be one among them. My manager stopped me due to lot of project reasons. When I searched my eyes around, I found few other junks also staying here. My cousin and his roommates and my close friend are few creatures who lost their pongal hols. Instead of staying here and cursing the manager, we planned to go out together and enjoy the pongal. The first place came to our mind is mahabalipuram. Tuesday night I got a call from my brother and planned for the next morning 8 a.m. I have started exactly by 8. am from my home(anna nagar) to his home(thiruvanmiyur) in my block tiger(Unicorn). It was slightly raining. We know what is bachelor’s punctuality. They weare taking bath when I reached their room. Finall by 9 am we started to have breakfast. It struggled a lot to find a hotel due to pongal hols. Finally we had a dosa each and started our beautiful trip exactly by 10. ( remember guys we planned sharply fr 8). So five of us started in 3 bikes. Sakthi, Vaithe in just born block tiger (Unicorn). Abdul and Sajeev in grey Unicorn. Finally Shaam in his Yamaha.

After Eeanjambaakam we raised our throttles to check our muscles. We had a little break near muttukkadu and had a small photo session. The bridge and backwater was so nice with raising vehicles in the road. Then we reached mahabalipuram by 11.15. Initially we had a plan to go to shore temple first. Because our main motto of this journey was not looking around mahabalipuram. We wish to go into sea. I mean with life jacket we wanted to immerse in sea 2 km from shore. We heard about this facility thro our friends. But we went to Five Rathas. What an art. Each and every part was good. Marvelous foreign figures. Instead of enjoying the stone art there, we teased everything there (including us). We climbed on the rocks there and enjoyed the Ariel view of arts. My bad time some display occurred in my Nokia 5610.

So couldn’t shoot many photos. So taken help of shaam and abdul . Mostly shaam became our official photographer. When we started from their, we found out a excellent talent behind shaam. Wherever we go he used to find eatable things shop. This time he tasted three cocunuts in single sip. Then we started to “arjunan thavam @ krishna’s butter ball”. Again shaam is missing. Finally we found him near a cucumber shop. Vaithee and sajeev tried much to roll out the butter ball rock. They gave up finally. The path was so steep and am sacred of steeps. When get down from that place it was so slippery. So every one made fun with me even a little dog there. But near to that place one gate was looking like Gateway of India or Some gate of castle. Shaam took photographs of that gate. Then our next spot was light house and a temple over there. This time shaam chosen mangoes and lime soda. Then we reached shore which we made colorful by comments and pulling legs each other. We mocked the place by our own histories. The best part is we cheated a foreign couple by showing a rock and said it was king’s bath tub. As the punishment our main motto of this trip failed. Fishermen are not ready to take us into sea. They explained tides were so aggressive because of full moon day. So we settled there with ice creams. We said bye to mahabalipuram and started to Chennai again.

It was clear till we reach One place. Suddenly vaithee screamed to stop the bikes. Merely we did that with the help of disc. He was seeing board of Crocodile Park and then what. We entered in. Crocodiles are very lazy creatures. At the first sight on them, we remembered our afternoon office times. So lazy to move. Everyone enjoyed the movements of crocodiles except vaithee. He was too busy with his phone. Now we found out why he insisted to stop the bike. I don know which girl on the phone. May be number 4 I hope so. The Park staffs find hard to push out of the park due to closing time. It was around six. Sajeev mocked like an Animal planet reporter. He was trying so close to crocodiles. Then our next stop wa Savukku thoppu beach. This time abdul came with a bang. The beach was so empty. So he entered into the sea to have his bath.The sun said good bye by seeing that. So we started from that place due to bad light. Really it was scary moment to stay there in night times.

Finally our beautiful journey came to end by 7.20. I think we enjoyed pongal only. Isn’t it.?

Moral : Anyplace is great if you go with perfect partner\partners.
