Pondycherry trip

I’ve been to Pondycherry(pondy) many times. The latest trip happened last month with my office friends in Chennai. This was the first trip with this particular new set of friends. As usual it was a fun-filled trip. We left Chennai on Saturday morning on a bus to pondy. It’s a 3 hour journey along the ECR(East Coast Road). After reaching pondy we checked into some hotel there, we bought drinks(booze) pondy is famous for drinks since there is no tax for liquor J So after boozing for nearly 3 hours we took some rest and took off to the beach. We were hanging around the beach for some 3 hours, had our dinner and came back to the hotel and slept. Next day morning we went to Aurobindho Ashram Spent some time there, then we went to the beach as the ashram was neat the beach. Here’s a pic of pondy beach:-

The Aurobindho ashram is one of the main landmark of Pondycherry it’s a peaceful place where one can come and meditate for hours. After spending some quality time at the ashram we went to an island beach, this place comes in the cuddalore high way. We had to travel by boat to the island, it was a 15 minute ride on the boat. Here’s a pic of the island beach:-

After spending some time there we came back to the bus stand, had our lunch n then came back to Chennai on Sunday night. On the whole it was an amazing trip…
