Tamilnadu Tour 2006

May 26, 2006

After a long time I am posting an entry!

During last week I visited many places of Tamilnadu, India. It was very hot there but we enjoyed the tour and it was a nice experience.

Check snaps at,

In 6 days we visited,

Hyderabad ->  Chennai -> Pondicherry -> Srirangpattanm -> Rameshwar -> Kanyakumari -> Madurai -> Kanchipuram -> Mahabalipuram -> Chennai -> Ongole -> Markapur -> Guntur -> Vijaywada -> Hyderabad…

It was almost 3700 km tour in 6 days. We also had Tirupathi temple in our plan, but due to some emergency work, I had to cut short and returned back to same desk and PC!

Pondicherry is really a nice place and I like houses of the city. (And also girls! Typical south Indian, only one superlative word:  Suuuppperrrr… Image)

At Kanyakumari, there is one place which is not that much famous but I found that very nice. Place is Vattakottai (In Tamil, Vatta - Circular & Kottai - Fort, Circular Fort). Also, wind farm is worth to see. In night wind farm’s blue lights are attractive.

Mahabalipuram’s stone carving shows great art. All the statues in pictures are made from a single stone!

Chennai city is too hot! One should go there in winter only!

Finally it was a great fun!

autumnal equinox

September 23, 2005

Today is my birthday!!! And it has some significance in Astronomy.

The autumnal equinox (or fall equinox) marks the beginning of astronomical autumn. It occurs during the month of September in the Northern Hemisphere, and during March in the Southern Hemisphere. In Chinese culture it marks the middle of autumn. At the same moment that the autumnal equinox occurs in one hemisphere, it is the time of the vernal equinox in the other hemisphere.

In 2006, the autumnal equinox of the Northern Hemisphere falls on September 23 at 04:03 UTC. In the Southern Hemisphere the equinox occurs at 18:26 UTC on 20 March.
