.We were returning from a visit to a
knitwear factory at Tiruppur near Coimbatore. While we were about 10/12
kilometres away from our destination, a ship like structure became visible from
a distance. My nephew who too was attracted, started shouting ship, ship. I
protested, no It can’t be a ship, you don’t have a Sea here. He was not to be
subdued. He promptly said, the Tsunami might have brought it here. Again I
asked, then where is the Sea. He readily answered, it was taken away by the
Tsunami.
I took a photograph from that
distance and when we were closing in, I got the vehicle stopped for further
exploration. The structure turned out to be a College of Marine Engineering of
Coimbatore. The photographs are appended.
