Tuticorin Trip
I went to Tuticorin to visit my cousins almost a month back, didn’t had the time to update the blog. The last time I went there was almost 10 years back and the place looked totally different and I could not recognize many of the places there.
Myself and cousins we decided to go to a place called Idayangudi, which is a village down south around 60km from Tuticorin. They have a church here and they were celebrating their 125th anniversary, so we decided to go and visit this church. This church was build by SBC missionary organization. Along the way almost many of the villages have churches built by these organizations and also they have schools and hospitals build by these organization.
Still don’t understand why they went to remote villages 100 years back to setup all this. Wonder how these villages will be if they didn’t setup all this?
The highlight of the trip was the ending. We were returning to Tuticorin and on the highway I was crossing a cyclist, and this guy decides to take a U turn with out seeing what is coming and I could not stop my bike. I hit him pretty hard and I lost balance and went and hit another cyclist, now there were two cyclists on the ground. The first guy knew that it was his fault and didn’t say anything, we offered him to take him to the hospital but he said he will take care of it. The second guy, since it was our fault we took him to the hospital gave him some money and we took off. We were lucky that no one was seriously injured. I guess I am still not used to riding or driving here.

Need a break!!!!
It was just crazy busy at work. I didn’t do anything for a long time. No regular running practice for the marathon (means no Chennai marathon), no blogging for a long time, no going out, no nothing….
Now it is little bit free at work and I am going to run away for the weekend. Planning to go camping, really really need a break.
