Pre Puja- Puri trip

Spent some days in the holy city of Puri in Orissa just few days back. There visited the holy temple of Lord Shri Jagannath as also the Gundicha temple. Took a bath in the waves of the ocean. Visited Konark, situated 40 km from Puri as well as the well-known Chillka lake. Also went to the artists' village at Raghurajpur for some souvenir shopping. The weather was hostile in the beginning but, it changed from the second day onwards giving way to clear blue skies and the sun beaming down on the waters of the blue sea- all perhaps for us to watch from the balcony of our sea -facing room and enjoy.
