Diamonds stacked one upon another from a funny angle look like stacks of tiny people's heads. (What was in her coffee?)

The sea at night looks very mythical. Like our how I imagine our Paar Kadal would look with Vishnu and Lakshmi reclining on that giant snake. (Step away from that coffee!)

What you crave for in the middle of the night takes you by surprise (and sometimes, home).
