Trip to Kanyakumari

I was back in campus for mid-term evaluation of my project, evaluation was scheduled on Friday, so i reached calicut a day advance on Thursday morning, full day spent with friends talking about here and there, finally at night prepared project report and the presentation for tomorrow's evaluation. by noon presentation got over and we were decided to go to Kanyakumari, we have tried to get car from Raju bhaiya but as he was little busy with some work we couldn't got from him. finally we got a Wagon-R from the Abdul Cheta, many times we rented bikes from him for small journeys but this time we have planned to go almost 500 Km bike will not be a good option.
We all got into car and started our journey at 4PM. This was first time i was driving a Wagon-R. and car was good with good pickup and electronic steering. at night 2AM we reached Trivandrum which was our decided first halt. Our two seniors Mr.Shashi and Mr.Bhagat with one of our super senior Mr Arun welcomed us their.

We stayed at their flat for the night, as per our daily schedule we got up from beds late and continued our journey to Kanyakumari after visiting State Bank Recruitment Cell for some work. We took a break at Kovalum beach, it was nice beach full of foreigners taking sunbath and enjoying the sea waves.

On the way we got attracted with Nagarcoil waterfall sign-boards, although it was 15km out of the way, we decided to visit that also, some how we found the waterfalls and all our expectations went wrong when we saw the waterfall, it was very small one. any way we clicked some pics there and continued journey towards endpoint of peninsular India.



Ooo i missed out the introduction of the crew this time guddu and salam were with our alltime NIT gang APJ (Amit, Pavan and Jayant). Five of us reached Kanyakumari at about 6PM. It was nice to be there we spent time sitting near to the sea-shore. As the boat service to the Vivekananda rock was closed by the time so we didn't went to the meditation rock. Done with some purchasing we we got into the car for return journey it was 9PM so we thought to have dinner here itself and got into a restaurant. after a nice dinner started our return journey and we were back at Trivandrum at 11:30 PM.

Something extraordinary we got up early in the morning to visit famous Padmanabhswamy Temple after temple i met one of my BCA batch mate Raees. and then we were on our return journey, we stopped at Alphozha backwaters which was again a new place for all of us. By 6 PM we were back in Campus and fully tired with the journey. At night again i have to travel to Bangalore to be present in the office Monday morning. Nice experience.

As it was too hot during day journey everyone was trying to do something to get rid of the boredom sitting quite in the car. We captured a video also while returning on the Kochi Highway
