Chennai - Day 5: 4 Sep 2008



i-Race @ Dakshina Chitra.

It was a blessing in disguise that the trip to IT Leisure that day was cancelled. i-Race @ Dakshina Chitra was more interesting I believed. Mr Justin stayed up the night before to design this activity.

Three cheers for Mr Justin! 3 x *HIP HIP!* *HOORAY!* =D

Yuxuan's group emerged the winner through excellent teamwork.

Lunch was @ a restaurant of a small hotel. By now, most of us had already gotten a little "sick" of the local cuisine. Suggestions of having KFC or pizzas for dinner were made. We opted for the former.

As there was a strike in the local film studio which we had planned to visit, we went to shop at the city centre mall instead. Almost everyone bought something I guessed. Some big brands there are cheap, probably because the factories are located in India. I had also bought a 2-litre bottle coke and some crackers for the party that night. Dinner was KFC, the favourite meal of the kids since we touched down in India.

Finally, it was the last night in Chennai. I, together with some teachers, had teh tarik from a stall opposite our hotel. It was quite nice though initially we were worried that we would have a run.

By the time I returned to the hotel, the kids had already finished their packing and blogging. We had a very modest start to the party with games of "Dai Di", while sipping at the coke and popping the crackers. Then we got wind of a pillow-fight two rooms down, and we decided to check it out. We had a great fight. Two rounds in fact. That's all I can tell you, but it was definitely superb fun! It was my first-time in a pillow-fight! xD
