narayan · 21st August 2007, 22:58

fiery enzyme · 21st August 2007, 23:48

Guys here are the pics. Sorry the pics usually contain people in them.I dont have any landscape pics.

This is the boat ride to the beach.They charged us 250 to take us to the beach and come back and pick us up in the evening.we get the whole boat and the ride is almost 45min one way.Nice bargain- boat ride + deserted beach

This is the beach. We hade the whole beach to ourselves.Imagine! no one else.

nitrous · 22nd August 2007, 00:40

Suspense.
Ill show her during the drive.

esteem_lover · 22nd August 2007, 00:44

Bala, those pics are good man, pictures are supposed to have people in them. BTW, didn't you have someone to lean on ? other than the baccardi of course.

Is this pulicat or pondy ?

OK, this thread was started on 9th Aug and I see it today. Chennai guys, if you start a meet thread, please PM the link to the chennai guys (atleast to those that make it to the meets).

I know this place ? Heck when Pulicat was suggested, I was like "OK, nice place to go, never been there." John, I think you are confusing my post on Tada falls with pulicat. AFAIK, these are 2 different places. BTW, Tada is a great place to go for a meet - either day or overnight stay in a tent or under the stars (no hotel or stuff there). And vikram, your jeep would love the drive across the stream and the offroading (we did it in a contessa though).

While I would love to whine and howl saying, "guys, please postpone it by a week so that I am back in town", knowing the way chennai meets work out, I am sure that its not going to happen anytime soon - so I will make it.

Hmm, thats worth coming to the meet for.

esteem_lover · 23rd August 2007, 22:04

Just for that statement, we are going to go off for the drive before you land up.
