Just one more temple


Before I head off to the hill station of Ooty in the Nilgiri range there's one more temple to head to. The thousand year old chola temple to the north of Thanjavur. Yesterday in the unexpected constant rain I travelled by train to the nearby town to see the urban temples and the rural 1000 year old chola temple complex famed for the its miniature statues. I had to get the rickshaw driver to stop off for me to get umbrella to cope with either unexpected deluge of rain. My planning hadn't factored in this, I have sun screen, mosquito repellent, hand sanitiser and now a new umbrella! Must make the most of temples, as I am moving west and there are other sights to seem.
