A trip to Trichy became memorable when

**My 4 year old nephew almost cried himself hoarse one day screaming ‘V-A-N-I Vani Vani’
**Sitting on a huge see-saw made me feel like I was in the sky
**I laughed so much sitting high up on the see-saw I was sure I would die laughing
**I went on the giant wheel for the first time in my life – and enjoyed it too!
**Nearly died laughing looking at the videos of all the antics 4 grown-ups had done in a children’s park (umm, yeah, grown-up includes me too! :) )
**Visited four temples in two days ;)

**We went to a quaint, unknown village after receiving directions from very eager-to-help people.
**I met some of the most beautiful children in the village – where one girl refused to stop staring shyly at me and my sister
**We smiled heartily at three kids who were proud that they took a ride in the car we’d come in and rolled out of it joyously, grinning away to glory
**I caught a sad cold which surprisingly, got cured soon! :)
**After the trip, finally got something I had wanted for long, but was slightly scared of: getting a second hole pierced in my ear! ;) It pains now, but who cares?

Couldn’t have asked for a better ending for a wonderful year….Happy New Year, everybody! May we all have a beautiful year ahead, filled with happiness, health and laughter!
