Destination: Pondicherry

From Chennai I'm heading south to Pondicherry, which is just a two hour cab ride away.

You have heard of Pondy from the movie / book Life of Pi. A coastal city held at various times by Portugal, Holland, most recently for almost 300 years by the French. As such, a large section of the city is known as The French Quarter and is filled with French architecture. Here you can find restaurants serving French wines and natives speaking French. There is a early morning walking tour I want to take advantage, and an Ashram to visit.

From there I'll shift to a nearby beach resort for some summertime R&R.
