Memories - Happy Days ❤️ #1

It's a summer vacation, but since I am from Kerala and so don't want to mention that we will get rain for almost all months (Oh sorry, this is happening in nearly 2005 to 2008 times). 

In my family culture, there is a habit of visiting and staying in cousins home for a  week (Each week each home - all cousins together) for both father and mother side families. 

One vacation I visited my mother's younger sister family and stayed over there for one week. It's too rainy ☔ that time, and those days are now just as  sweet❤️.

The house looks like old Kerala culture home, with dome made of tiles and floor made of cement. The house 🏠 consists of two bedroom, one kitchen, one dining room, a hall and a varanda( the sitout ). 

During rain, we will not go out for playing instead we will play with that rain🌈. Will get wet in that rain until the elder one scolds and after that will try to collect rain water in those little palms ( staying on varanda telling to elder that I will not go in rain but only stands over here. Those water drops falling from the roof tiles perfectly collected on hands like each drop 💧 of water is presious ).

Side to the house an old well is there, during rainy season it will fill upto the top such as we can take water out of it with just hands. And in front after that yard a pond is also there, view from that varanda during rain is such a wonderful picture. That lotus🪷 in pond adds an extra beauty to it like some heaven. Since it rains the pond will also fill and the water will comes to the front yard of the house along with water fish 🐠, frog 🐸, as well those little snakes🐍 which are not harmful.

Fishing 🎣 also will go in hand from varanda during this time. After that long wait it's the time to go out and play when the rain stops. Since the backside fills with so many fruit trees, it will gives an image like a small tiny forest🦂 there. 

Climbing up on trees🌴 is little tough this time, even we will manage and will make our best to collect all those fruits, and it's not thrilling if we are collecting those which fell down😎. Considering all insects worms 🐛 snails 🐌 and spiders 🕷️ we want to take care of ourselves. It's not the bite of these will hurt, it's the warning that we will get from parents and the reaction after that "don't go out anymore" will hurt most🥰.

That small jackfruit,  in Malayalam we will call Anjili Chakka it's seed is more important than its flesh. Even its flesh tastes good we are more interested to collect the seeds for making it dry and fry for eating. 

Other than this mangoes, jackfruit, gauva is also there but we will interest more in kashimanga tree the Cashew trees. As like these Anjili Chakka we will collect those cashews as more valuable than that fruit. I think it's because may be these fruits gives little more work for us like drying and frying, so that we can play cooking and in fire as well.

other than these cycle race in evenings and different outdoor plays make those days this much memorable. Even after years remembering about those wonderful days in my life again means it's the time of Happy Days ❤️.
