Day 2

                    We reached Coimbatore today. It was almost 5 in the morning.

Coimbatore Railway Station

We barely reached to the entrance gate where we saw Baidya, suited up in a completely formal attire. With three of us united, the only thing left for us was to spot the bus that would take us to our destination "Amrita University", where the event is going to take place the day after tomorrow.
With a bit of exploration we eventually found the yellow bus, parked at the rear entrance of the station. No wonder, thanks to our excitement, we were the first team to reach the bus.
But soon enough we could spot teams from various colleges boarding the bus, and when the clock struck 7, we all were ready to go!

Amrita Campus:
Mesmerizing! Hypnotizing!'
What a wonderful campus! It is vast, with large buildings all around. And then there are long roads that are surrounded by green patches of land. It's so neat that you won't even dare to throw trash here and there, and with the placement of statues of Hindu Gods like Shiva, Saraswati  before almost every building, it's definitely the best campus I have seen so far. Before I continue to the next part do have a look in the beauties that this campus has to offer!






And then.....a small glimpse of the beautiful garden...



Soon enough, we got our room as well.....


We left the room once we got our belongings settled inside the room and looked forward to explore the campus further, but wait..... our stomachs had something else to say.

BREAKFAST TIME! :D

The canteen is quite good. It's large, with dozens of tables and lots of well-equipped chefs! Hygiene 10/10. As we kept on scrolling the menu, we soon had all of our eyes fixed in a specific item that appeared to be delicious, and thankfully, was really delicious. It was "Poori Aloomasala", and along with it a cup of soda satisfied our tummies quite easily!

Bas, we were ready! We planned to take a bath and start exploring the other parts of the campus...when something happened.

After I finished my bath I returned to my room, only to find the door locked. Initially I thought that I was being the victim of a prank played by these two monkeys, but well, when I kept on banging the door for 15 mins and nothing happened, I started to worry a bit. My phone was also inside the room, and I was left outside with nothing but my dresses and a towel :P
I assumed them to be in a deep sleep, which is quite natural after the long tiresome journey we all had the previous day. So I roamed the campus to kill sometime, came back, and fortunately they were awake by now. Great save for me!

It was already lunch time, and being completely honest, this was a terrible lunch.We took a bit of all the items but when we started tasting them each and everyone turned out to be sour. Too sour, I mean. I finally took to rice, dal, papad and nimbu paani, and came back to our dal, papad and nimbu paani, and came back to room, with dissapointment.

It was evening and we planned to start exploring again! Moreover, we all geared up ourselves with Polemon Go! , and provided the fact that I got quite a few pokemons here (We three had already started collecting them from the moment we reached the campus!), we all had high hopes!

And we stumbled upon BumbleBee.....


And some few more pics.....

                      


It was time for grasses to get some water, so the sprinklers were activated. And there were a LOT of them.

And then the game began- "Escape the Sprinklers :P "

Not to get wet...and waiting for the right moment.....until

RUN!!  RUN!!  RUN!!  RUN!!  RUN!!  

Can you spot some of the sprinklers?


We finally arrived to our room. It was around 6.30 pm, but dinner was about to be provided from 7 to 8 (how can someone take his dinner at this time of the day?), so we took some rest and made our way to the hall where dinner was being served. 
And it was not at all like lunch. We enjoyed it and were quite happy!


That's all that sums up our "today". Tomorrow is an important day. There would be registration followed up by practice sessions for the upcoming main event to be held on the day after tomorrrow!

We would try to give our best! Let's see what happens. Wish us luck!
