Aadi 28

Here's a collage of Aadi 28.

Now, the name will sound different to non-tamilians. The name means 28th day of the tamil month of 'Aadi'. Usually comes around 13 or 14 August.

Its an all exclusive family festival in our village Mettupatti in Trichy. Its been happening for 3-4 generations before us. All our family members come together and feast! I missed it this time though Ramya went and had fun.

As Sivaji says in Devar Magan, "5000 varusham munaadi vetri vel, veera vel'nu vel kambu veecharuvanu thookitu suthuna kaatu payyaga dhaan naanga" (we are still the same in spirit like our ancestor nomads who went about with spears and sickles 5000 years before)..
