A STRENUOUS TRIP TO SAMANAR PADUGAI :) JULY 16 :) PART-1


This was an unexpected and an extempore trip all together.We were all travelling from Sivagangai to Madurai in the morning from Sathish's house with the recently serviced maruthi 800 of my aunt .

We include Myself, Bala,Navanee,Vicky,Vijayan and sabarees. After some 55 minutes of a slow and steady drive we reached the outskirts of madurai in that mildly breezy and rainy afternoon :) Suddenly bala was asking me if we could go to that samanar padugai near naagamalai pudukkottai as we reached madurai bit earlier than the scheduled time ... within a blink i agreed and all the others came to a consensus for that short trip on the trot ... we started moving through the busy city of madurai on that suddenly changed scorchy afternoon which was breezy quite before ... We were having a bumpy ride all throughout our trip despite riding in the so called "National highways" :) Alas with the help of an Auto Driver we traced and spotted out the correct route to the hills despite the deviation we had initially :) The road that diverged to the hills from the highways was rickety to the core and the car wheels started wobbling badly as we neared the hills. A Sudden Speed Breaker hit our car's chassis badly which sounded like the chassis being thrashed by a hammer :( My heart beats rose as high as it could and I had a wonky feel after hitting the chassis hard :( The chassis and the silencer were quite newly fixed spending some 4k just a month before :( It took me few seconds to regain ma conscious and strength after it was hit badly :) Later I pulled some energy out and continued to drive ... finally we spotted the down hills just a few hundred metres away. After a sharp curve around a banyan tree we reached the down hills of samanar padugai... astonishingly the place was deserted and there were only a handful of humans visible... (contd... in PART 2)
