Thanks,
Jose.

Woods manner Cafe. A calm one. Biggest + point is the underground parking.

Kochi meet report on 11th July 2010
As per plan, we were supposed to meet at Vyttila, but a change in plans meant the venue was changed to Panampally Nagar at 4.30 PM. Fortunately for me, I was in the vicinity and reached there at 4 PM. Called Vaisakh. He told me that he was on the way from Aroor & to call Naveen. Called Naveen & he was there to pick me up in 10 minutes. After introducing ourselves, we decided to have a tea while waiting for Vaisakh & Jose. Soon Vaisakh also reached and after finishing tea, all of us moved to their cars. Some time later Jose also joined us with his sparkling Yamaha & we talked about a lot of things which ranged from the Yokos in Naveen's Swift to a good location for future meets. Took some snaps of the meet for posting. Me being a sucker for Yamaha you can find more of the bike's pictures.

Around 6.30 PM we decided to move to some place where we could have some coffee/tea & snacks. Jose had some previous commitment at home so he excused himself. Naveen suggested the Woods Manor Cafe (think it was called Side Walk Cafe) & the rest three of us moved to the place. As Naveen said the +point of the place is the parking space available. The food was also decent. After spending some more time there we wound up the meet at around 7.30 PM.
A big thanks to you guys for arranging the meet at such short notice and for a wonderful evening. I really enjoyed the meet and hope we will meet again when I come to Ekm. My only suggestion is to find a nice place (some hangout where we won't get kicked out even after spending some thing like 3 hrs & having only one cup of coffee/tea

). Now for the pictures.

Great pics there Ranji.
Didnt know that you snapped so many pics.
As mentioned, this was a meet that was arranged on a very short notice. It was great that all could come on time.
Looking forward to more meets in the coming weeks.
@Ranji, let us know when you come down to Cochin next time. Will arrange the 1 day drive as planned.
Thanks for joining guys.!
