My daughter Pavithra's friend, Parvathy (Pachu) was to stay with us over the week end and Pavithra was gung-ho about Pachu's visit. On Friday, the 9th April, Pachu came home - she too was excited to come back to the place where she had stayed earlier and meet all her friends. From then on, it was only play, play and more play. They quickly had dinner and again went down to meet the gang, rather the SJC GANG !
Both the girls got up early (no wonder, coz they had to go to play !), checked whether their friends had got up - what with the mobile & free intercom facility within the apartment. Came back for breakfast, quick shower, play, lunch, Computer games & then the much awaited beach visit.
Pavithra, Pachu, Subhadra & Jemi along with the responsible adults (!) my hubby Anand & me went to Besant Nagar Beach on 17th April evening. The girls started talking ninteen to the dozen & clicking photos in the car itself. We enjoy being with Pavithra & her friends.
Once in the beach, we straight went to the water, Mr.Clean, Anand, did not like the idea of his feet & pant being wet & then walking on the sand. So, while he stayed away from water, the girls and me had a blast in the water. The waves became boisterous as time passed. The sound of waves, unrestrained laughter, loud screams in between (while some twig came near our feet) and the numerous photos taken while in the water with various hilarious poses - wow, that was fun, UNLIMITED FUN. Anand had his share of fun talking to his friend non stop on the mobile (what with the wife & daughter not around to interrupt the talk !)
After being completly wet, we came towards the parapet wall near the road & had ice candy. By then Pachu's sister, Gayathri & their father joined us. Going to the beach & not having Maanga & Corncob - how can that be? Gayathri bought raw mango & corncob with a dash of lime & salt - ummm. Spent some time watching the group of elderly ladies playing some games (backward walking, kho-kho) - what indefatigable spirit.
Gayathri & her father went back home while the rest of us headed to Mast Kalandar for dinner.
All of us thoroughly enjoyed the outing. We decided that we will once again come to the beach with a much bigger group.
