Premi, Urvi and I had undertaken a sudden trip to India for 10 days, arriving into Chennai on 12th morning. During this trip, we visited Chennai, Covai, Ottapalam, Kochi, Trissur and Guruvayoor.
Had the opportunity to drive around 980kms this time around. Approximately 800kms in Zen Estillo and 180 in Toyota Corolla. I had enjoyed the drive in both cars. Enjoyed the company of Premi in these long drives as we talked a lot covering almost all topics and enjoying good music. Looking forward to more such trips.
15th - Covai to Ottapalam in Estillo (around 90kms)
16th - Ottapalam to Kochi and back in Estillo (around 280 kms)
17th - Ottapalam to Trissur and back in Toyota Corolla (around 130 kms)
17th - Ottapalam to Covai in Estillo (around 90kms)

20th - Ottapalam to Aata thara to Guruvayoor in Toyota Corolla (around 89kms)
21st - Guruvayoor to Ottapalam in Toyota Corolla (around 85kms)
21st - Ottapalam to Covai in Estillo (around 90kms)
+ miscellaneous driving in Covai and Ottapalam.
on 21st Jan'11, we celebrated URVI's 2nd Birthday @ Puthoor house, Ottapalam. A grand sadhya was organised by Ammamma at Puthoor with about 45 guests for lunch.
Another highlight was the good darshan of Guruvayoorapan. Premi, Urvi and I had stayed over for the night (20th Jan'11 night) @ Gokulam Hotel - Vanamaala.
We had not been able to take Urvi inside Guruvayoor since her birth due to many reasons, but only prayed from the outside, However this time to compensate, we decided to stay there overnight and we managed to get her 1 darshan on 20th and another on her birthday 21st Jan'11.
What's pending is syenaprashnam, that I prayed to perform. Hopefully I will be able to satisfy this during my next visit.
Ps. We selected Gokulam Hotel - Vanamaala, coz we both stayed here in separate rooms before our wedding on 7th Jan'07. The hotel room is very clean, coffee was served hot. The a/c was very effective and hot water too was available with satellite tv.
