Was there at Besant Nagar in the evening. The number of people gathered to watch the ship that was pushed to the shore by the cyclone was just unbelievable. The sea was rough with high tide that gave a feeling that we are below sea level. It was nice to experience what its like when the storm strikes. I have always missed this experience sitting at home and watching it on TV with awe. The sand blast from the strong cyclone wind was awesome.

Now I am happy, it was quite an experience! Sharing some pics my friend took with his mobile of the helpless ship. Excuse the photo quality please

re: Chennai Team-BHP Meets: 2017

Wonder how the roads will be, now that Nilam has visited us. Well anyways, if you guys are still planning on the trip - all the best, have fun. Sure hope to join you some other time.

A word of caution - carry your stock of drinking water, don't go local here.

So what is the final head count for the drive. The convoy seems to be shrinking by the day.
BTW, anybody running in the TWCM? Hope to meet some of you there.

re: Chennai Team-BHP Meets: 2017

I really wanted to attend the drive - but lot of other commitments have come up for the day. Hope to come to CCD and meet you all.

The ones attending the drive - if you have time check out the road full of shoe shops in Ambur - these are the ones that manufacture a lot of export items. If you are interested and spend a bit of time (inspect each carefully) you will get decent shoes for around Rs 300 a pair or less if you buy more pieces and can bargain.

Also all the Non Veggies - have fun with the Ambur biryani !
