Navaraathiri . . . thookam Yedhu.. ohhh

If you have not seen the Kamal movie MMKR, the title won't make sense to you. My apologies.

The last week was hectic with San being out of town till Thursday. Let us say that I pretty much went into survival mode as Daddy trying to juggle work and the kids.

When it was time for a much needed rest, there come the Navarathri celebrations and they started Friday.

So the afternoon nap still eludes me.. but this year thanks to the nice lenses taking photographs of Golus(doll displays) is a lot more fun!

This is a photograph of a lamp shot with the macro.

So far we have seen nine golus over friday evening to sunday evening. Have another 6 more to visit for sure between now and next saturday.

The pictures of all the golus will have to wait till next weekend. For now, work calls...

2005 : The first golu post when San was still very pregnant with the little one (ah, how time flies!), stitch shots of golus

Now for the last of this years photos.. (the little one deleted two of the photos on the iPhone by mistake)

That is all folks!

Golugraphy - Navarathri Golu's 2009

Wishing one and all a very happy Navarathri Golu season, Dushera, whatever other name the next ten days go by...

Golus from Bay area friends have made it to this blog for years now. This years photos do not do justice to the magnificent displays. Most of the pics were taken on the iphone instead of the canon (it will be obvious from the photos). Here are the pics from the golus we saw this weekend...

More Golu photos next week. The kids had a great time this weekend, singing, collecting eats, meeting friends, etc..

Here's to a better tomorrow!
