M'lore - Day 2

It was 6:30am when i got up. I didnt wake up others as they were in sound sleep so i decided to go to beach alone. S'kal beach is just 10 mins walk from hotel. It was a great feeling as i was visiting beach after a long time, probably after i left chennai. There was a fishermen crew busy in their daily activities. They already spread the fishing net inside the sea and were praying to get as many fishes as possible. I went there and clicked some snaps. Sat there for almost half an hour staring into the infinite sea and thinking about good old college days. I was almost jumping with joy after seeing the light house of our college beach. But localites there have spoilt beach, all waste was on the beach making it dirty. Anyways i paid less attention to the surrounding and was busy in looking at the sea, am not crazy, but i feel like sitting there on the beach staring into sea for long long hours. Just cant express myself how happy i was to come back to the nicest place i ever been to.
I was back to hotel by 8 or so and we all were ready to visit st Mary's island. I have been to this palce probably 4 times before, believe its one of the glorious places to visit. We started at around 10 am from s'kal and reached Malpe beach around 12. Luckily we got a boat waiting for us which takes us to the island. The island is about 3km inside the sea and it takes 20 mins by the boat to reach there. This island is made up of lovely hexagonal rocks and came into existence after a volcanic erruption in the Arabian sea few centuries back. We roamed around the beach and clicked as many snaps as possible. Me and balli tried to swim but had to come back as the water wasnt that great. We spent time gossiping and playing around and it was real fun. Compared to last time, i found water level little bit reduced, dont know reasons. We came back to Malpe after spending nice 2-3 hours on the island. The island is secluded kinds and people are not allowed to stay there overnight.
We came back to college bach by 5:30pm and straight away visited the temple on the beach. I prayed to god and got prasadam, very much unlike me. We all sat down at the rocks behind the mandir and happiness was at it peak. I cant really express myslef to pen down feelings at this place. It was like "i am in heaven". We all sat there, talking to close friends, telling the importance of the moment. I just not able to pen it down, really. We clicked so many snaps of our dear college beach and praised it like anything. I looked at the ads rocks (this name is given by vikram, to the favourite rocks of mine, where i used to sit for hours) and was so glad. All old memories were running through my mind.
We all said good bye to emotions and went out for hunting , to see some spot close by where we all can spend our new years night. We all made arrangement for liquors and other eating stuff and came back to beach at 9:30pm. A bonfire was made and we all sat around it. This was the best new years celebrations i ever had, on a beach, with bonfire, with friends, with old memories, with vodka. We all enjoyed the clock striking 12 and congratulated each other. It was ultimate fun and we were having the best times of our life. Suddenly, out of the blue, few cops came in and ordered us to vacate the place. Me and balli were still on the beach while the others left us. It was heavenly feeling, sitting on the beach in the middle of the night. Though we had made few campfires during our college days but this was simply the best among all. Could have been better if other guys wudn't have left. As the night was progressing the cold breeze was getting more colder. It was night before the full moon's night. And the moon's reflection on the sea water was absolute beauty, stars were tickling at their own pace, everything aorund seemed to be perfect and beautiful. Around 4:30 we ccouldn't bear the cold and came back to hotel.
This was without doubt, the best ever new years celebrations for me.
