Bay Of Bengal

These are some pictures of trips to the local beaches. Marina beach is along the coast of the  Bay of Bengal, which is part of the Indian Ocean. Its about 10 Km from our place , a 20 minute drive if you are driving at 1 AM, and being colour blind would help or if you drive like our Formula none maniacs(a driving description in the The Times of India). The beach is very popular, a must see for any tourist visiting Chennai. We always go to the shore to get our feet wet and soon Ashwin and Priya get wet with their clothes on and have a great time.  
The other pictures  are from a beach  resort about 1 hour from home in a place called Mutukadu. The big attraction here is the swimming pool and we spent most of our time swimming. Helen came with us and we are enjoying her company till she starts work in August. We also ran into some Bostonians at the beach here (identified by the Ellsbury Red Sox shirt) and had a little chat. Hope you enjoy the pictures.
