We left for Namma Bengaluru after a quick refreshment...Standby for more
Took some time off after Chennai's landmark activities and went to office. I had a surprise waiting... A cute little nano cake was organized to mark Nano's arrival in Chennai and me being part of the cavalry...
The Nano looked very cute (Sunshine Yellow LX model) and it was little hurting to damage it (by cutting the cake) ;)
It was very thoughtful of the team and I take this opportunity to thank them for their support. My twitter background that sports NaNo Superdrive and few other graphics were also done by the folks at office.

Day 16/26: Chennai Landmark pics
on Friday, June 18, 2010Nanos visited several prominent Chennai landmarks.
Marina beach is Asia's longest city beach and is a must visit for any visitor of Chennai. Starting from lighthouse near Santhome till Anna Memorial on the other end, the drive is very scenic and during the evening (more so during weekends), half of Chennai can be found here... (The other half will be at Besent Nagar beach ;... just exaggerating) )
