Events as they happen ~ Jan 15th!

With the Sankranthi Festival comes the Chennai Sangamam ~ the Open Festival to the city!

We went to the nearby park to catch the action live with kids. Even before we got in, kids were more keen on the balloons that were being sold outside. Finally we did get back home with one for each. Though promptly two got bursted, leaving just that Yellow one behind!

Food stalls selling fast foods and other items!

Stage all set for the evening show!

The eagerly waiting crowd..

Finally...Lord Shiva and Parvati with their blessings!

They were so obliging to pose for the camera, of course Shiva was upset on his missing crown.


Enjoy!

Chennai Sangamam ~ The Open Festival!

The Chennai Sangamam ~ the open Festival is a great occasion the people of my city look forward too! Its the second year this time and the city is all well prepared. The roads have become more crowded, especially at the places where its held.

This time we thought we should take atleast Konda to see the happenings. The place was too crowded and people were all excited with the classic programmes being showed. The food, though very limited to choose were in demand.


I didn't know the artist singing but there was cheering!


Its held in different parts of the city with each place showcasing different cuisines of Tamil Nadu.

After spending some quick time, we rushed back home as Athamma was alone with the boys!
