I am just back from a walk of about 5kms. Watching the sunrise on the horizon at the sea was really intriguing, an expereince far richer than any. Though its summer there were quite a number of clouds out there dark and neatly formed some of them were flat at the bottom and had various shapes on the upper, they all had a mixture of brown, white, gray and black..This place near mandaveli in chennai is called foreshore estate. The furious heat of the sun would start in a couple of hours melting the tar roads and spurting the dangerous uv rays. The sun was a crimson golden color the water in the sea shimmered, the waves were a pure white as they hit the shore. About ten ships of various sizes were anchored about 2 to 3 kms away. One of them was quite huge and brown in color probably carrying some sort of an oil. to the continent.
Inhaling the fresh air was rejuvenating though with a little aroma of fish and sea water. Walking back the road I came, the hustle and bustle of modern day was already there ...the huge college buses honking with students , a loudspeaker near the mandaveli signal chanting of some slokas, dust and mud settled on the leaves of the few leftover roadside trees.
