it is time to pack my bags, and go back to BOMBAY. though it was not my first stay at CHENNAI, and its not going to be the last either, it was the longest so far. i am extremely happy i made most of it this time around, saw MAHABALIPURAM and TIRUPATI. and i have made sure there are few to-do for my next visit, the world heritage temples of THANJAVUR, the french colonies of PONDICHERRY and a drive in the heritage mountain trains at OOTY.
what i always liked in chennai?
> the evening walks at besant nagar beach
> idlis with four helpings, each different coloured, coconut chatni – white, pudina chatni - green, podi - brown, and sambhar – brick red, serverd on a dark green banana leaf.
> jasmine flower gajra’s decked on hair of almost every girl
what i always hated in chennai?
> the weather
