we started at 5.45 am. we never imagined that we could cover 50 kms in half an hour on kerala roads. at 9.30 we reached a restaurant named puttu kada [neyyattinkara].but
when we ordered puttu, we got iddiappam and when we ordered tea we got plain milk. it was a horrible experience. by 12.30 we reached thiruvanathapuram. we saw the lodge[punnen road,trivandrum] were my father stayed when he was young. we visited IHRD where my father used to work.
we met many of his collegues.by 1.00 pm, we had lunch at the famous sagara sea food restaurant.
then we went to kovalam beach. the beach was of no fun. we left to poovar to look for a room to stay. poovar is 18 kms away from kovalom. no luck. no room for us. i dont think off season trips have any difference with seasonal ones. we headed back to the city and by 8 pm we received a room at residency towers hotel behind secretariat. we had a heavy dinner at hotel pankaj. then we rest for the night at our room.
the next morning we had tea prayed in sree padmanabaswamy shethram, pazhuvangadi temple & attukal devi temple. we headed back, had a nice breakfast. then we headed back home.
