Chennai can be a cool place to spend the summer!

Thanks to mom - Haven't missed much of the tradition being in a metro on hot summers!

Seek permission from Yadhvi to digress from the main topic !!!

Summer also means no school kids traffic, school autos/vans in the mornings on the way to office .... Driving is easier !!! It is beautiful to observe ..... The lack of school kids is strikingly obvious in the week leading to Tamil New Year's day in April .... The reverse happens in the first week of June ... Tiny tots in freshly stitched bright uniforms along the roads .... I cannot escape these transitions since I take the KK Nagar and Saidapet route which is predominantly residential ....

Naveenan,
Agree with you about the traffic - Roads are definitely free..
