APR 30, 13 .. MY KODAIKANAL INTERNET CAFE ..

Now that I am back from my trip to Ooty .. and 'home' here in Kodaikanal ..

I thought it might be a bit-of-fun to show you where I spend up-to seven (7) hours a day (this has been my maximum) at a cost of somewhere around Nine ($9.00) US Dollars a day.  The 'nominal' hourly rate here in Kodaikanal is 80 Rs ($1.60 US Dollars) per hour. I use the word 'nominal' because I get a slight discount because of the many hours that I spend here.

In Ooty I paid 30 Rs per hour! This was a surprise to me since Ooty is generally considered to be a 'high cost city'. 

Let's start out with the exterior.

A shot of the Internet Cafe on MARKET SUNDAY.

A closer look.

When it comes to my actual work on-line .. I live and I die with the expertise provided to me by the staff at the various Internet Cafes that I use.

Here in Kodaikanal .. THE MAN .. is Mahesh and Mahesh has been immensely helpful! You will see Mahesh in the below three photos.

And a very nice close-up of Mahesh!

Inside we go and up-the-stairs we go to the second floor.

At the head-of-the-stairs we turn right into the 'Cabin Room' and then left to shoot the below photo of the 'Cabins'. The green chair ahead of you locates MY Cabin  2 on the left.

As you can see below .. I use the green chair to put 'my stuff' on while I used the internet.

There are several other 'regulars' here and one of them shot the below photos of me 'at work' on-line.

There 'you-have-it' .. my Kodaikanal Internet Cafe!  And it feels 'very VERY nice' to be 'back home' here in Kodaikanal!  

Smiles .. Cap
