Yesterday
I went to Marina beach, casually, and come across the arrangements for Republic
Day (Jan 26). I actually forget about it even I watched news on the rehearsals
related to Republic Day parade on TV. I usually used to visit marina beach, a day
ahead to the celebration to check what’s happening around. For the last few
years I couldn't make up to the marina beach during that time, and it was nice to
be there seeing a bit of the display. Here
I share some photo taken last evening:
An elevated stage erected
opposite to Ghandi statue, in Marina beach, as part of Republic Day
celebration.
A helicopter displayed near the Marina beach lighthouse as
part of Republic Day celebration – car procession.

PS: I received another lovely handwritten
card from our fellow blogger friend Indrani, following Chandra’s greeting. It is
so nice to receive cards from friends and it gives a feel that words can’t
describe. But it produces a sense that was truly bliss and inspiring to go
ahead with a feel of significant. Thank for your support dear Indrani!
Here her beautiful card

You have captured great and memorable pictures & a beautiful butterfly card !
Nice photos and nice postcard!
Where is the Ghandi's statue? I really salute and admire all his good work & wise thoughts. He is well respected in my country.
It is good to see such nice preparations for republic day.
Twilight Man - I shot that picture from moving car, so i wasn't comfort or intend to take picture on other side. Yes,Ghandhi is a universal leader and there couldn't be anyone not admire him.
Ah, now I realize I could have gone to the beach yesterday or today to get some interesting glimpses. But nothing to worry - I was able to catch up with the pics in your blog anyway! :)

Wow Jeevan! These are some incredible photos. I love the helicopter :)
So you got a feel of the republic day celebrations on the eve itself. Today morning I really enjoyed watching the beautiful march past,dances and tableaux on the TV at the National celebrations of the day in Delhi.I's a proud moment for me.
I have never visited Marina to watch the Republic day function. Let me try next year. Beautiful card and Indrani is great to send a handwritten card, which is rare nowadays!
