This photo captured by my son reminded me some old memories. Thought of sharing it.

Whenever I come to my hometown. In early mornings I used to walk along the rocky bridge, reach the edge. Sitting there for sometime watching sunrise, sea, and passing boats and catamaran. Generally I go with childrens carefully guiding them through the path. Years rolled on. Nowadays my son quickly ran through the path watching me struggle for each step on the stones.

The places in picture holds many of my memories. In our childhood, the seashore was our main playground for every evenings. During holidays sea bath is our routine, though it was very hard to get permission from my mom. Climbing the lighthouse in the background is another entertainment. In the left side, a river can be seen ending in sea. Here where we a group of boys in 7th std stage jumped in to the river and successfully crossed for the first time. What a great achievement for me in those day to brag about. I also had a poisonous snake bite and recovered after reaching unconscious stage. A church seen in the background is our primary school. Our home is also very close to it.
