Friends Meet 2008 - Dec.

Trip to Kodai

We Sekar, MS and me with family started from Chennai at around 8:45 pm on 25th December. Kodi canceled his program as his father was hospitalized. Gugan had slight fever and we got medicine for him in perungalathore. He had high fever during the travel. When we reached Madurai, he had heavy fever and so we left Mrs. Rajasekar and Gugan in Madurai and went to Mani's house. Chock annan & Mani joined us. We then called Sriniovasaraja. He also joined us.

From there we went to Athisayam. JP was there already. We enjoyed the water games. Kanmani and Manoj were enjoying the slide games. We spent the complete day there in Athisayam. Sekar has decided to return to Chennai as Gugan has not recovered.

Raja and Sekar with Kanmani left to Madurai. We started our journey towards Kodai. Sudakar was waiting for us in the Kodai ghat road. We reached Kodai around 9:30pm. It was very cold. Kodi booked Three cottage there. We stayed in the cottage after having dinner.

Next day morning we went to Kuringiyandavar temple. Mrs. MSSenthil had purchased for wooden massage things. Mani was cutting some funny jokes there and every one were enjoying it. We had a photo session.

After having dharisanam, we had BF in Krishna bhavan. Heavy crowd there and it took more time for us to get the BF. After that we started towards Pillar Rock. As there were heavy traffic, they diverted us in a different route. We went to Pine tree forest.

Many never visited this place as this is in a different route. It was nice to see. Many cinema films were taken in this place. Kids gave pose for us. We took family Potos.

Next we went to the Green valley point and had a walk there. Then we went to Pillars Rock.


We went to Kishna Bhavan for Lunch also. We had Fried rise and Curd rise there. After that we went for boating. We took two Row boat with rower and one pedal boat.

MS, Dhaksina, Manoj, & Meenu went on Pedal Boat and others went for row boat. We were enjoying the Boating in HOT sun light!!!!!!!!!!

Mrs. Mani was saying that she is going for boating in the NOON for the first time. For us no other choice as MS was leaving to Chennai on that day.

Then everyone went for horse riding and cycle riding. At 5:00 pm MS & family started from kodai to Cennai as they have work on Sunday. This trip Manoj didn't enjoyed much.

Then we returned to cottage. We atarted dancing. All the couple danced but the kids didn't. Chock annan said all the kids are waste as they are not enjoying the trip.


Then they started dancing. It was really nice to see all the kutties danced very well. I didn't expect that Priyanka and Sivani dance so well. They really danced nicely.

Last day we had BF first and then went to boating. We hired four pedaling boat. Chock annan got everyone Ice cream and kids enjoyed the boating with ice cream.

Then we went to Garden. There we gave interview for Covai FM. Every one talked and Darshina sing a song. We then played games in the garden for two hours. It was full of fun and Mani, JP and Isu made the time lively.
From ther we went to the cottage and had lunch. One group took rest and few of us went for coakers walk. We went for some time and viewed the Guna Church and the hills through Binocular. Had some shopping there and returned room.
Then we started from there and returned. On the way we went to Silver cascade and then returned Madurai. Sudakar left to Trichy.
This is a trip, where we faced more challenges. We planned in last min. as usual. I was not able to book ticket in time. Kodi missed it last minute and Sekar returned on the day One.... JP had car problem while returning.....
