Thanks in advance

Should not be very different from what prevails at Chennai, which incidentally happens to be the best summer in my 19 years here. Never remember getting such rains during Jun-Jul in any other year.

And Pondy is a place you could visit any time. Go for it.

Never ask for the right time to visit a place like Pondy. If its too hot have loadsa beer, does Pondy have winter at all

?

Drive down and enjoy the cheapness of fuel for humans and vehicles.

Quite a few travelogues on the forum which could be of help.

Do make your bookings in advance too.

Anytime is a good time in Pondy. Its on the coast, so expect warm, humid climate. If it rains/drizzles, good for you.

Erm, I don't think most of you guys know the alternate meaning of pondy.

There's never a wrong time to pondy.

Hmmm...Why not we have a Chennai-Bangy team-BHP in Pondy ...

v1p3r · 8th August 2007, 19:51

Why not have it in Mysore instead? Time you guys paid us a visit!

Well said, akroy. Like in "Alto, let's go".

Pondy to me is a place I love and would not even think much before driving off to. Only thing is, I would like to do it on a Sunday to avoid the weekday traffic. Also, the laidback French-style place looks better and is best enjoyed without crowds.
