Zurück in #Mahabalipuram. Fuhr mit der Autorikscha von #Chengalpattu dorthin, statt wie ursprünglich geplant von #Chennai. Dadurch sparte ich drei Stunden und war nur 30 Kilometer unterwegs. #olliinindien #india

Heute Nachmittag fahre ich nach #Cuddalore und zwei Tage später dann via #Chennai weiter nach #Mahabalipuram. #olliinindien #india #tamilnadu #chidambaram
