Day 20 Towering statues

I flew to Chennai today and on the way to the local airport came past this statue in a temple in a small village on the road. I always forget about it until I see it, but as you can see it's absolutely enormous. I think the change in sky colour is most likely down to windscreen tinting as I took the pics from inside the car.
The flight went well, a tiny twin propellor plane with just 70 seats so the turbulence we hit was noticeable.
I had prebooked a sandwich and cold drink so that was nice, the flight only lasted an hour and twenty minutes so passed quickly.
I'm in a 5* hotel here, and I must have been nice to the receptionist because my cheapest room had been upgraded to a business class room. Very nice,. I also seem to have booked a hotel, quite by chance, in walking distance of most of the places I want to go to so that was clever.
13600 steps today - pleased with that as so much time was spent flying and hanging around in airports!
