It is bcoz of Lord Puri Jaganath on the coastal areas of Mahabalipuram that kept me alive to blog with you all.
A day to remember and a day to forget.
On 26th December 2004, coastal areas of Tamil Nadu were tremored by the furios waters. That was the first time I happen to experience a natural calamity. Deep on set the high road after the octroi check, we took off to a plane speed that ranged around 150. Hearing joyous comments from my family side about the long planned trip my uncle wanted to darshan the Puri Jaganath Temple. The only hesitant issue that peeped was our proposal to boat out that time. But we dint mind. We went on to darshan the lord. The beauty of the temple graced thru a lot time. We then took off to the high road for the resort.
My uncle a Chartered Accountant, a very outgoing person was having a good time on chat with the kids. He briefed us the laurels of the place as he had been there about 50 odd times. He then remarked that he has never seen the waters touching the palm trees alongside the shore and felt that it would be wonderful to boat that day. It was at that time we received a call from our grandma saying the shores of TN are shook by Tsunami a ginat wave killer. The proximity to the shore dint exactly transmit the correct signal as we had to call her again..
We were near the bridge when we the saw the waters literally attacking the height of the Bridge. That took us to heels. We had to invite our goose pimples for a visit. Within 10 minutes we have to vacate 10kms or vacate the world. Choice was ours. 10kms in 10 minutes would be a mad race "remarked the driver". Everyone grew pale. No chance of taking the pondy route too as it was still venemous. I was speechless and was thinking how to spend the last few minutes in the van. In addition to it we were frightened by the mad lorry driver who must have trained Narain Kathikeyan.
10th Minute we were outta the circle. We also voiced to reverse the cars and vans who were ignorant of the event. Merry thanks to our driver who packed us safe to Childrens Park. With lots of blessings of GOD I am here to blog you my life alive today. Right from my birth(1990) to 2004 I had never seen a calamity. Hoops! That was a great day to remember for I am alive today and to forget for the lives that are no more.
