Ahobilam - Suggested Itenarary

We were supposed to leave Chennai on Friday at 5:30 in the evening. All of us where there at the Saidapet Police station bus stop on time but the bus turned up only by 8pm! From there we picked up a few more people and left for Ahobilam. The bus was rickety with no push-back seats and we could hardly rest our heads. We stopped by at a small temple at 9:30pm to have our dinner. We had a cook accompanying us because there were some orthodox devotees who don't eat at restaurants, for that matter there are no restaurants in Ahobilam only a few small joints serving the . So the cook had packed dinner. We reached Ahobilam on Saturday at 7 the next morning and lodged at the Ahobilam Mutt. And after toilet and bath set out for the shrines. Our plan was
