Pondi 5
Afternoon at the beach
This afternoon, swim at Serenity Beach 10 km north of Pondicherry. My friend Rishabh finds out what a seashell is…
Rishabh is from Rajastan, he knows the desert but not the ocean.
He is 22 years old but there, for a quarter of an hour, he will behave like a 5-year-old child who marvels at nature…
Yesterday and today in Pondicherry
Remains of the East India Company: What remains of the pier that allowed cargo ships to dock and unload and load. A pier is a perpendicular quay. It has not been maintained since the departure of the French. It is gradually falling into ruin and will eventually disappear. Access is prohibited to the public.
File photo of the wharf
In the photo, we can see the perimeter wall protecting the warehouses. The photo is taken at sunset.
Left side of the pier, the beach of Pondicherry and the white city. Just under the sunlit cloud, the top of the old Pondicherry Lighthouse can be seen.
A new, higher lighthouse has been built south of the white city… Visit with Rishabh
The evening walk
Moonrise over the Indian Ocean
And every evening, the walk at sunset….
