Introduction
January 7th,
Hi friends!
How are you? I am fine. I am in Chennai (Madras). Chennai is a very big city, and it is the capital of Tamil Nadu. My family is from Tamil Nadu, so we come every year to see our relatives. Yesterday I went to visit my grandparents, and tomorrow I am going to see my uncle.
Next week we have a very important Tamil holiday, Pongal, so everybody is very busy. We have to prepare many things for Pongal. We are going to have a lot of fun!
The weather here is nice. We are at 25º C, and it is sunny. This is typical Chennai winter!
People in Chennai say that there are three seasons in Chennai: hot, hotter, and hottest!
