Having reached Rameswaram on a Thursday
Having reached Rameswaram on a Thursday it was time to look for a lodge. First tried in the North Car street. As i was in the auto one gentleman suggested i better take a locker which would be highly inconvenient given the stay that was to go beyond two days.
THe lodge where i had stayed about three and a half years ago, Ramanajaneya Chatram, the manager of the same expressed his inability to give a room citing prior bookings. Other lodges/ residential points in the North Car Street like Udupi Chatram, Sri Ram Lodge, Chola Lodge in the vicinity of Ramanajaneya Chatram either had no personnel manning the reception or were in no state to let out rooms. As the automan took me to Varthakan street, it is also known as railway station road, Hotel Queen Palace was looking like the probable lodge where i could stay. The manager of Hotel Queen Palace was about to come when the manager of Sumathi Lodge called us and expressed his readiness to part room on the first floor.
After the room was taken i set out in search for tea, the search taking me to SS Grand restaurant. The idly and tea from SS Grand was something to relish about. Just before noon had the opportunity to visit Ramanathaswamy temple. When i returned to the lodge there was no power and it stayed like this till five in the evening. We were told that once in a month in Rameswaram there is a load shedding that begins from early morning and lasts till evening. In the evening made rounds of Vathakan street and middle street.
On Friday visited the temple after 10 in the morning and i was told it was closed for the entire day except for early morning between 4 and 6 am. Afternoon took meals from a restaurant in South Car Street. Later purchased a bag and a belt from Mahadev Sea Shell shop in West Car Street run by Mr Purohit from Rajasthan. In the evening visited Tech Park, the cyber cafe in West Car Street and booked a train ticket from Madurai to Nagercoil. The staff in the shop and cyber cafe were quite cooperative. In the evening visited SS Grand restaurant. The Hanuman Temple across the road has a charm of its own.
