Harish's wedding in Chennai

It was Diwali, that has suddenly brought large sections of the family alive, at least on the Aparajita mail group - now the trick is to get the rest of you on to the blog and blogging like there's no tomorrow. Harish's wedding took place in the last week of October, which threatened to be one of the wettest weeks of the year. Chitra, the kids (Ragini and Malini) and I popped down to Chennai on the Shatabdi Express (which is looking more attractive each day, compared to flying to Chennai). Malini got to write a couple of poems on the train, (but that is a whole another post that I promise to do just on her poem writing) - and sooner than you could say tomato soup, we were in Chennai. It was clear and actually cool (or maybe it was only seemingly cool as I had expected it to be in the 80s) - it had rained pretty heavily the previous few days I had heard.

Getting back to Harish's wedding, it was good to see a lot of folks that I had not seen in a while, starting with Usha, who presently lives in Goa (she claims it's temporary). Took a reasonable amount of pictures, including Malini's shots of the seer varizai. She was also taken up with how much the sisters (ANP's daughters) look like one another and insisted on taking a whole lot of pictures. Check out the pictures here!
