Here is the chairman of the school. And this chairman is one of my older thatha’s. In this picture, I am donating my money to the chairman of the school. 

Also, we met two others thathas in Tiruppur, Muthu thatha & Thangavel thatha.

Today appa, Deva, and Surya will get their hair shaved at the temple. They will be bald. Here are appa, Deva, and Surya after they shaved their hair. 

We had an Annadhanam ( free food ). I donated $20 for Annadhanam, which serves food for 50 people. Here is a picture saying the Annadhanam money will be donated by Nila in Tamil.  

And after that, Amma and Deva went to Salem for a week and joined us for the Ooty. During that one week, my Appa went to Chennai for two days. And the next day all of us which was Atha, Thatha, Appa, Surya, and I went to a function. Here is us at the lunch tables.   And after that one of my Peripas taught us how to play a game with the rotating mint. Here is a video of my Peripa teaching Surya how to play the game.

And after that one of my Peripas taught us how to play a game with the rotating mint. Here is a video of my Peripa teaching Surya how to play the game.

Okay, guys, we arrived in Ooty just now. I will write later today. Okay, Ooty is built on top of a mountain. We saw one of our Perima and Peripa there. When we arrived me, Surya, and Deva started playing with Perimas and Peripas dogs. They had three dogs. Their names were Max, Lia, and Happy. Here is me and Max outside in Ooty.

The next day we went out to have fun. And we ate pizza from Pizza Hut for lunch. Here's me Surya and Deva eating pizza.

Today before we left we all went to a historical St. Stephen's Church & a Hindu temple and honored one god. Here is a picture of the church & gold statue of that god.

It was a piece of cake to climb the mountain, but on the way down the mountain Surya threw up two times and everybody’s head got a headache.

And we were not going back to Tiruppur, we were going to Salem. But we took a lunch break in Atha and Thathas house which is in Tirupur. So let me explain why we are going to Salem. We are going to Salem because of Appachas (Grandpa) prayer meeting. Oh guys we just arrived at Salem. I will write to you tomorrow after the prayer meeting. Met all my cousins in Salem.

Alright, guys the prayer meeting just finished. We sang songs. They were Christian songs. We sang and prayed for Appacha in the prayer. Goodnight. Today. Before we left Salme we went to see Appachas grave. Here is Appachas grave.

My dad, and, Surya and I are only leaving for Tirupur. Amma and Deva did not come because Deva had to potty train and Amma had to help Deva. And we are leaving in a week. Can you believe it has been five weeks already? Today we went to Peripa and Perimas' house to say goodbye.

Hey guys today, me Surya, and, Appa are leaving for Tiruppur today. We said bye to Atha and Thatha. Here is a picture of us.

We just now arrived at Salem. Amma and Sneha amayie went shopping. They returned after we arrived. After staying there for two days we all left for Bangalore. After one day in Bangalore, my family and my Ammachi went to the airport for Texas. Do you guys remember the flight to India? The flight this time is just the reverse. Annie chithi and Santhosh mama and Joshna and Liana all came to the airport to say bye to us. Here is us all in the airport on a T2 terminal.

On the flight, I got to sit next to Ammachi. Here is us on the flight.

We finally arrived in Texas. I was so happy to be back home. Here is a picture of me in our home.

I had so much fun in India. Thank you for reading my blog. 

The End!

Today we are going to pick up my dad from his yoga retreat. I had to wear a dress. My mom said it is kind of like a temple where my dad is. There is a god named Adhi Yogi. Adhi Yogi taught yoga to teachers and the teachers taught to other teachers and taught other teachers and those teachers taught yoga to my dad. When we went there my dad was standing in front of us.  And my dad said there would be a light show. Here let me show you the light show.

In Tiruppur my Thatha has a thotham (big garden). He has a mango tree in the thotham. He went and picked a few mangos. I ate at least three mangos, and they were so delicious. Here is me eating mangos.

In Tiruppur we saw a lot of street dogs. Here is a street dog that we saw when were on the street walking. I felt sad for the dogs out on the street because they have no food and some of them got hurt. And I told my Appa to give them some waste food that we did not eat from our meals.

We will be going to Thanjavur, Madurai, and Thekkady as a family trip. And tomorrow we are going to pick up my cousins in a big van. It was like the Wayanad van but bigger, it had seventeen seats.

I threw up two times on the way to Thanjavur. After we reached the five-star hotel in Thanjavur and refreshed ourselves we went to the Raja Raja Cholan temple. This temple was built a thousand years ago. And at that time there was no cement. So they built it without cement and yet it is still standing in its place. At this temple, we prayed to Lingam. UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) recognized the Raja Raja temple as a historical site. This is a picture of me and my cousins and my family and my grandparents at the Raja Raja Cholan temple.

The next day we left to go to Madurai. And this time my parents gave me medicine to not throw up. We were so close to the hotel we went to a temple. Its name was Meenakshi Amman temple. At the temple, we prayed to a goddess. The goddess name was Meenakshi Amman. We got back in the car and headed to the hotel. When we arrived there it was amazing, and it was a Marriott hotel. We ate dinner and went to sleep. While we were in the hotel my appa, amma, and older cousins went to explore Maudurai and eat food at a restaurant.

In Madurai, the main thing to go there was Krishma’s puberty function but it was today night so we still had time in the morning to go to the swimming pool at the hotel. Here is a video of us in the swimming pool.

Tonight we had to go to Krishma’s puberty function. It was boring for me but not for Surya, his friend Taarush was there. They played pretty well. Here is a picture of me, my cousins, my family, and my grandparents standing with Krishma, her parents, and her brother, Taarush.

The next day we left to go to Thekkady. The hotel's name was Spice Village. And they were true to the name of the hotel, there were a lot of spices in the village. Okay, today we woke up early to go on a boat ride.

And on the same day, we went on an elephant. After riding the elephant we got down from the elephants we saw the elephants lift trees with their trunks and we fed the elephants a few bananas.

My appa said we were going on a jungle safari but when we arrived there it looked like a mountain. On the way back to the hotel, we stopped by a tea garden. We got down and took pictures in the tea garden. Now you may think that a tea garden is full of tea, but actually, it has the stuff to make tea. I think they are herbs. Here is a picture of me and my family standing in the tea garden.

Here is a picture of my older cousins, Rishwanth Anna and Rithi Akka standing in the tea garden.

We finally arrived back at the hotel. Gotta say the ride to the mountain was so bumpy that it almost made Atha throw up.

Today morning my appa Rishwanth Anna (older brother) and Rithi Akka (older sister) went on a jungle hike. My dad said there were a lot of leches.

I am going to play games and sleep. I will write to you on the next flight bye-bye.

Hi, guys. I am on the next flight. They only served dinner on this flight, on the last flight they served breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The view in Bangalore is amazing. I would give it ten ⭐️s.

Let me show you the view right now. Three, two, one, get ready to be amazed.

I know right, it looks amazing. Hey guys this is one hour later and we finally landed in Bangalore. My mom was full of excitement when we landed. We got our suitcases and got a cab to take us to my amma’s (mom) younger sister's house in Bangalore. We were so tired when we got there. My mom's mom made idli. It is like a cake without frosting. The curry was really good. This is one of my cousins, her name is Joshna.

It is morning right now. My cousins are still sleeping. Tomorrow we are going to Wayanad. This morning they served dosa with chutney. Today me and Joshna went outside to play with Joshnas friend Onila. After we played we went in to eat lunch. 

Today we are going to Wayanad. Joshna said it would take thirty minutes to get there. But then my dad told me it would be SIX HOURS! When we arrived it was the evening. The next day we went to a dam. Here are some pictures of us in the Wayanad.

The dam was really fun. After we saw the dam and were waiting in line to get on the van, William Chithappa bought us butterscotch ice cream (my favorite ice cream) because we were starving. And then we got on the traveler. It took us back to the mountain. And from there, the Jeep took us back to the hotel in Wayanad. When we got there we ate a few snacks and drank hot chocolate. After that, they had to change Annie chithi & William chithappa’s room and Santhosh mama & Sneha amayie’s room. But now they were closer to us. The next day my dad promised us to go to the pool. But first, we walked a few trails after we ate breakfast. After the trail, we went to change into our swimdresses. We got into the pool. It was freezing cold. That is why I was kinda cold at that time. And then me, Joshna, Liana, and Surya played snakes and ladders. Joshna won like usual and said it was from practice like always. Good night. I am really tired right now. 

And then there is me holding the smallest cousin in the family, Sasha. She is so cute, you are going to be ”cutifed” ( and by the way I do not know if “cutifed” is a word ).  Tada!

I know she is probably the cutest baby I have ever seen ( no offense to other cute babies). 

Hi guys, it is the next day. And let me continue on the Wayanad thing. After all that fun we had to go home. It took six hours. And like I said I threw up in the middle of the drive. Here is me and Joshna in the traveler.

Oh and by the way it is almost - you have to guess it by emoji, it includes Deva. Deva is my littlest brother. He is two years old. Ready to start going! Go!
