The rains are here

Last week Chaithu's school was closed for two days. Every time there is a heavy downpour I wonder where the animals and birds take shelter. I am sure many also perish, nature's way of controlling animal population.

Many places in Chennai are still inundated with water. My greatest joy, the high decibel, ear splitting crackers are quiet, many dampened by the rains. Let it be a peaceful Deepavali.
