Missing Home


I am thinking of home… probably a bit too much(actually very HomeSick). No no no!!! not Chennai but the place where i grew up..
Its a pretty much non-descript place off NH5(National Highway-5 which runs all the way from Chennai to Kolkatta), just 15-20 minutes from the sea(Bay of Bengal) on the banks of a small river(which is dry through out the year except during monsoon) and beside a small hill.
‘A’ likes the place a lot.. and its a great excuse to visit my parents.
Some pictures to share…
The sea. Shells, catamarans, tranquility…
