Day 1 :
We start from home around 9:30 AM in an OLA Cab and reach the airport.We take the 12:05 PM Spice Jet flight and reach Port Blair around 2:30 PM. Roti and Tomato chutney packed for lunch.
Checked into Lal Bagh Garden Resort near the airport.It was a nice decent room though not sofisticated.We hired a Honda Activa and went an saw the Sound and Light Show in the Cellular Jail.
Sound and Light Show
---------------------------
The show was @ 6:00 PM.It was for 1 hour.It was in Hindi.Felt very patriotic standing @ such a place, which is a silent testimony of the British Barbarism.The narration starts off with how and when the cellular jail was built.There were 7 wings and now only 3 wing are available , the rest were destroyed. The name "cell" was used denote the fact that the rooms were designed as small as possible so that more numbers can be built and more people can be accomodated.
The inmates were asked to churn out coconut oil in a very inhuman manner.The punishments were name Kala Pani. The movie acted by Mohan Lal "Sazah-e-Kala Pani" was shot here.
After the show we ate Masala Dosai in a South Indian Restaurant.
