Chennai map - Pretty simple to drive :)

Diwali Celebration

we had a wonderful Diwali last week. Lots of fire works and sweets and colorful dressess! After a long time , so nice to be in middle of that ......


Family problems everywhere :)

Seems like small family fights exists even in the most peaceful places :) Life won't be interesting without it huh!!! Took this snap when we were driving in an India SUV on the mountain roads.  Watch out for more monkey stories :). 

Business in a Garage!

Each morning when I step out with a coffee to my large patio in my rented apartment, I get inspired by a atleast 10-12 people busily working as early as 6 AM in the morning. (Truth is I havenot come out and seen before  6AM:) It's too early to my standards). It's just  about 10 feet by 10 feet and serves dual purpose!! A parking garage for a car or a tempo(mini-van) at night and a corn factory after 6 AM. Harvested corns arrive here early morning in trucks and get converted into packets(manual) and supplied to super markets. The thing I love is the dynamism of people so early and this gives job to quite a number of people and a decent pay I think(these days chennai's cost of living has skyrocketed)!  

one Busy Morning!

In the middle of forests of Mudumalai :)

we went on a safari onto the jungle(forests) of Mudumalai(Tamil Nadu) with my family. Mudumalai is in the western ghats of India(south India). Just took the snap of deers crossing our van. The trip was so pleasant my heart longs to go back there....
