Vacation, Vellore and more

I am off from work the whole of this week for vacation - definitely a well-earned break. Despite Chennai being the place to be in times of Christmas and New Year, off I went to Vellore with wife in tow to her mom's place. Traveling by the Golden Quadrilateral to Vellore after a period of 8 months is definitely a drive to cherish. The drive till Sriperumbudur irks, but then rest of the journey is bliss. Clipping/zipping at almost 120 kmph, even on the return (please dont tell my wife, mom or sis about this lest I get a lesson on slow driving), the drive on this route is much better than East Coast Road. Next target: drive to Bangalore. Dont know when that will happen.
