Hi Balaji,
I had been to the 'Ther' this time. The roll started a bit late at 9.50am and it was already hot. The 'ther' was off the road at three places and it was very difficult for the volunteers to put it back on rolls.
Arupathumoovar was beautiful. More than the palanquin, the hospitality of the localities with drinks of all colours was wonderful!
For some good pics check http://www.kutcheribuzz.com/pangunifest2006/
Hi, yes, I will check out the pics.
Hope you scrolled down and checked all the pics I had posted on the Kapaleeswarar festival. I've been doing it in bits and pieces.
I did. Superb pics. Pls keep up the good work.
