Prelude:
After nearly more than a year, i went on vacation for 2 days. This time with my company colleagues(or rather i say, my company gang). I have a beautiful team in my company and we all share a very healthy rapport with each other. They all have been to my engagement ceremony and marriage event. Ever since they narrated me their Ahobilam adventure(where they got lost in the dense forest and struggled to find way out just before dusk) that happened on the eve of my engagement ceremony, i was waiting for the right time to plan a trip with the same gang. We pulled it off finally at the last weekend of March.
Participants - Myself, Ramesh, Supriya, Satish Lade, Sowmya, Mounika, Gouse, Vipul, Piyush.
Destination - Chirala beach resort. I booked my accommodation in Sea breeze beach resort.
Transportation - Chevrolet Tavera - only 9 seater available on rentals.
We all gathered at Supriya's home at 9:30PM. Had a nice dinner. As we had some more time to start, we spent time on the open terrace playing cards and chit chatting.
Gouse was so full with the dinner that he actually turned into chatur(of 3 idiots film) and done the "Utthamum dadhdadaath paadam...Madhyam paadam thuchuk chuk ..Ghanisthah thud thudi paadam... Surr surri praan gatakam" and then sowmya spelt out the great theory of sound and smell. Everyone out there were all rolling on floor laughing like hell. We had some quick snaps.
We started at 12:45AM and was out of the city by 1:15AM or so. We did a non stop till Suryapet and had a pit stop at Suryapet dhaba.
As soon as we arrived at the dorm, there was a call from restaurant to order the breakfast order upfront. Its not that they don't serve if we go there directly, its just that, they can keep the food ready. So, we quickly rushed to the restaurant. Had a heavy breakfast and got ready for the strenuous day ahead. The sambar and chutney was very tasty and we quicly gulped all those available idly, dosa, poori, chai, coffee.
Rushed to the beach.

All laughter's after the invention of theory of sound & smell :)
Talking to Nithyanand...lol
Watching the wedding albums of the host
We started at 12:45AM and was out of the city by 1:15AM or so. We did a non stop till Suryapet and had a pit stop at Suryapet dhaba.
We shuffled our places to just be make everyone comfortable and i am placed at the back of Tavera for the rest of journey. We had some good time chit chatting, playing around, teasing each other, sharing love stories(some real and some fake stories from Vipul :))
We reached Vijayawada by 5:00 AM. The road leading to Prakasam barrage was so crowded and was at snails pace even at those hours of the day. After we exited vijayawada, i don't remember when i felt asleep and by the time i woke up in that jumping jampang road leading to chirala, it was 6:30 AM and we had another 10 mins pit stop. I called up the resort for the directions and we all set again. In another 45 mins we were there at the resort, just beside the sea shore, just 100 meters from the shore. We could hear the sea wave splashing. We were all excited for the day ahead. We checked in and it was a very nice 9 bedded AC dormitory. Just the basic,clean, western washrooms, no hot water, with a telephone line to the reception and the restaurant.
