madras happened :) tintin and me return rejuvenated. tintin was super duper excited to take the near two-day train trip in a super cool AC first tier ...uber luxury compartment...he dnt realise at first that ppl sleep, eat and poop in the train ;) that was cute. he wouldnt sleep at all out of sheer excitement. befriended a gal named ashwarya at vijaywada on day 2 and played some games with her ...

chennai trip was good. we were at pishimoni's place for two days and then shifted base to didi's place. tintin LOVED being with shonubhaiya and later with babumama. tina didi dubbed him the
"little man" and he LOVED IT..just that he gets confused at the ease with which i make him small and big ... small when he attempts biggie stuff and big when he is acting cranky ;)

he would itch for visits to the phoenix mall at velachery...i think the shop clocked its highest ever sales with us being around in chennai ;) tintin got a flickering light car, a motorbike, a spidey on a bike, board games and a trailer from there. his shopping craving reached new highs i guess. but thatz ok because i told him we were holidaying. 

he would get the best food cooked by daxamma, didi's domestic help cum cook and would be floored by palani uncle, her driver who would welcome him everyday with "vanga vanga" (come, come).
 
two-day visit to pondicery too was great. both me and him would be in the pool for most part of the day as if we were born in water  ...


love each moment of stay in chennai.
