Chennai 2014: Touring

We started our day with a team meeting and discussed our roles for our first distribution tomorrow.
In the afternoon we spent a few hours touring Chennai with our enthusiastic Rotarian friend as the guide. Highlights of the tour included a visit to the tomb of St Thomas, the museum adjoining and the impressive basilica. Visiting the grounds of a Hindu temple was another point of interest.

We marvelled at the skill of our driver as he negotiated around auto rickshaws, cars, busses, motorized bikes, trucks and pedestrians.


A visit to the beach, one of the widest any of us had ever seen was a welcome change from the chaos of the busy streets.
So now it's off to bed to rest up for the excitement of tomorrow and the first group of bedkit recipients.
