Andamans and Crashed Cars
After having driven 8000 kms cross country over the worst terrain possible, our car gets smashed 800 metres from our house. The irony of it!
Ah well, the dreaded “new-car-meets-with-its-first-accident” jinx has been lifted. Anyway, to cut a long story short, Insurance is covering it and we might just make the weekend drive to Chennai - A place I abhor and try my best to avoid. But a necessary evil. Flights to Port Blair operate from there.
Anand unfortunately couldn't extend his leave, Air tickets shot through the roof and basically it means we have so skip Car Nicobar and Greater Andamans -
Our Andamans Schedule as of now - tentative to weather conditions, Air Deccan Delays, and general red tapism.
