Ellie, Dan and George arrived in the middle of Diwali and despite jet lag they all managed to stay awake and see some fireworks. They even got treated to some up close during a walk to the beach!
Unfortunately Chennai was beginning to experience its worst rainy season in 100 years during their visit. However, we still managed to get out and about.
In the first week we had a rather random visit to a local artists village. The guidebook said it was unmissable but we should have realised what we were letting ourselves in for when it only cost about 5p each to get it! The boys had a couple of rain days which they made the most of and a pretty wet trip to Mahabs was also squeezed in and we ended the week with a beer and Byriani party.

Despite the wet weather we managed to pack in some shopping and a few meals out.
Their visit culminated in another visit to Mahabs on a dry day and the contrast was highlighted by the fact that Ellie and I got sunburned! George also managed his first visit to the beach.
