Chennai Central at 10pm last night. Unlike SBC at MAS security was tight with baggage scanners working and some physical baggage checking too.
Last 45 days have been a roller-coaster ride for me. Was hospitalized for acute pancreatic necrosis for nearly a week then underwent 2 surgeries and again in the hospital for 10 days. I needed a break so asked the doctor if I was fit to travel and he said you are fit to do anything now. I decided to drive to Chennai from Bangalore and visit Kanchipuram and Mamallapuram for a day and drive back. After having an exhausting day yesterday I decided to leave the car in Chennai and take the 12657 Mail back. Some pics from my visit.

The original name of Mamallapuram is Mahabalipuram(Still locally known by this name). Mahabalipuram means the town of great sacrifice(usually deer). Lord Narasimha and Shanti Buddha. Nearest railhead to Mamallapuram is Chengalpet.
