Pondicherry trip
Pondicherry Trip (15 Aug - 17 Aug 2008) Long weekend is coming , this thought really kept us excited for many weeks before we actually started for Pondicheery. There was sceptism around whenever we shared our plans with anybody. It would be too hot , very long distance and blah blah but we really didn't care much. Google map gave an fare idea about the route and places to see along it. We decided to follow Bangalore-Hosur-Krishnagiri-Tiruvannamalai-Gingee-Pondicherry route totalling about 300 kms. A day before departure, I got the car serviced and a got a new tyre too. 15 Aug morning we started from AECS Layout, Bangalore at 7:30 am, weather was cool with earth still smelling of the rain it got drenched on the night before. It was a surprise to see the speed at which the expressway was coming up from the silk board junction till electronic city. All pillars are on place and work was going on a very fast pace. We entered NH7 and from there it was a smooth drive till Krishnagiri. Hi...
