From Hyderabad we started on 9th May. My mother wanted to give me a suprise. So she told me we are going to Kolkata by train. But when we reached, it was Chennai !
In Chennai we had our breakfast in Hyatt, the best hotel of Chennai. In Chennai Airport my grandparents and aunt were waiting for us. I was thrilled to see them and loved this surprise. We picked them and went to Pondicherry by an online booked car (inova).
There we stayed in Wind*Flower. Wind*Flower is a beautiful resort. There was a giant chess board in the middle of the lawn. Geese were playing all around. They looked pretty. On the first day we went on a boat ride. it was scary and exciting. And we went for swimming.
On the second day we went to Aurobindo Ashram. We went to a ganesh temple and saw lakshmi the elephant. I was scared but I enjoyed it too. For lunch, we went to a French restraunt and in the evening we went to the beach.
On the third day I took bath in the open shower of our room and we checked out from WF.

Our next destination was Auroville. On the way we had delicious lunch at Roma's Kitchen. For one day we stayed in Japanese Cottage of Afsana Guest House.
The next morning it was drizzling. It was lush green and lotus has bloomed in tiny ponds. We had our breakfast in the afsana guest house restraunt. We went to seen the Golden Globe (Matri Mandir). Then we had our lunch in a good restaurant. Our next stop was Mahabali Puram which had beautiful ancient rock carvings.
From there we went to the Chennai airport.
I loved and enjoyed the trip.
