ELLORA - Google search
"Aurangabad" and Ellora & Ajanta Caves" will show up. Rock cut sculptures-Monolithic carvings made these caves famous. Ellora Caves were on the roll call
for school picnics as well. I still vividly remember the huge Bee-hives that showed up at distant corners of the caves.
BOMBAY
E-WRITING- E-Writing/
Blogging owes its origin to Bombay. FAQ section of this blog will tell you -
how it all started and what this blog is all about. When E Writing was a distant future; diary
writing was my hobby. There is a treasure of handwritten pages- that speak of
" Diwali Vacation with Grandparents/ Farewell party at School and a lot
more.
CHENNAI
EGMORE- A busy neighborhood that houses some iconic heritage buildings of
Chennai. Egmore Railway station; Albert Theatre; Egmore Museum being the
notable ones. Ask my mother in law & she excitedly talks about "Santhi
Sweets" -a sweet shop that has stood the test of time. Alsa Mall- where my office was briefly housed-
stands like an old guard on Montieth road amidst all the newness around her.

Egmore brings me lot of memories. Near Egmore railway station there is a bus stop named automatic signal. I don’t know if they still call by that name. I was told automatic traffic light signal in that corner was first installed there in India.
I have been to Ellora. Amazing place.
Even I have switched to e-reading and e-writing. All said and done, there is a unique charm about writing with pen on paper.

I still have diaries or journals that hold many stories and notes.
I hope you are enjoying the A to Z challenge and that it is keeping you busy.
Have a great week.
