After some long and hectic months at Great Lakes, it was time off from Chennai and studies. So most of us moved out of Chennai, and so did I….it was time to go to Pondicherry (My second trip to Pondi), and it was as exhilarting, fun, tensed and would surely stay in our minds and hearts for long time to come.

11 of us started from Chennai  after lots of hangups, we were finally away. We had heavy breakfast around mid way to Pondi, and after reaching Pondi, searched for appropriate place to stay, the word appropriate holds a lot of importance. In between, after landing in Pondi, it was beer beer all the way. With Cans coming at half the expected costs, my dear Great Lakers were having time of their lives.After searching for hours we somehow managed to get a decent place (looked intitially, but perceptions can change)at above decent price. So we were now settled, and rested in peace after a hectic journey.

Evening came and we decided to move out and enjoy in the city, only to find out the driver drunk and hence the first obstacle to our happiness. But then came the surprise of evening. The place, James Court (important for lots in future), is one of the most happening place in Pondi and unknowingly we were staying at a place where loads and loads of “Norway Ladies”(in sophisticated MBA Lang) were supposed to come. The excitement was already in air and by the time party started at 11:00 PM, excitement and love all was in the air. Couples were found having time of their lives, and we were found dancing on the isles of Pondicherry and having visual ecstacy all around. This continued till early morning around 3:00 AM, or even more, as yours truly was sleeping away to glory (how can i be such a bore) when people were having fun all through out.

Morning brought in more fun and we were on our way to beach and then in the beach. In between two of our Batchmates (names disclosed), joined us late night and tried their luck in the firang party. The Boats were booked and we were right in the middle of the beach, amongst the heavy waves and having “bahut saare maaze”. But then “Yeh dil maage more”, so we decided to jump..yes jump out of boats, right in middle of beach…….Daring paid and the really were some wonderful moments. After having a ball in the beach, we decided to move to French Restraunt for Lunch, (name forgot), and boy this is another thing which neither of the 13 present their would forget. The food was great, the desserts were even better and so was the bill…..5500, yes we spent 5500 for lunch.

After all this we were back in our vehicle to get back to chennai, and around 6:30 we were almost there at Great Lakes, just when……………….”We Reached Safe and Sound” It really was a great trip and a good learning experience too!
