Two interesting things happened. One: My friend was fined because he was driving his new car without his seat belt, and I was left off because I was driving my old car without my seat belt; some of the few benefits of owning an old car – it is not mandatory to drive with seat belts for cars manufactured before 2000. Secondly, the trip went well till day 2 when returning Mahalakshmi showed her true colour; she stopped and wouldn’t start. After pushing her for nearly 1 km and the third time, she finally stopped. And voila, right in front of us was a Maruti service station. After parting with Rs.1500/= we arrived home 2 hours late.
Route: Coimbatore = KK Savady = Kozhinchamparai = Nemara = Nelliampathy = Trichur = Chalakudy = Athirapally.
