chennai is next

Another business trip... This time is to Chennai (known formerly as Madras), India... My last days of work (next friday) and they still wouldn;t let me off.. Well, at least it's a new place and new country... If not for this trip, i would not know when will i ever give India a visit.. So well, tonite i will be on the plane there...

excerpts from the lonely planet website :- Chennai has neither the cosmopolitan, prosperous air of Mumbai (Bombay), the optimistic buzz of Bengaluru (Bangalore) or the historical drama of Delhi. It's muggy, terribly polluted, hot as hell and difficult to get around. Traditional tourist attractions are few. Even the movie stars are, as one Chennaiker put it, 'not that hot'.

A word of advise from a close friend.. Go there with an open mind. Expect nothing cos expectations will only disappoint. Do not feel pissed off by the ppl's actions there, cos they are not as well-to-do as us.

So well, i will try to take as many pics as i can, if i have the time.. It;s a work trip!!!!
