At the back of my school, there was a creek. Due to continuous rainfalls, the water in the creek logged, and slowly it enters our school ground. We were eagerly waiting for that and checking the level of water. Because at a particular level we got the holiday. Then viola…. Screaming, laughs, and lots of cheering! We went always with a group of 8 to 10 people and enjoyed the monsoon. Only one or two people had an umbrella and rest of us were trying to hide in the same one ЁЯША
I am missing those days. How many of you have these kinds of childhood monsoon memory? Do you still remember your school incident guys? Comment, please.
Me and Mr. hubby love to have the monsoon ride on a bike. This monsoon ride rejuvenates us from the busy weekdays. This is one of the best ways to refresh our minds and body. Sipping tea on a roadside stall with hot pakodas… ЁЯШЛ and adoring nature give us relaxation. It is one kind of meditation for us.
We are grateful to have our home at this place where we have a beautiful
monsoon. People used to plan for a monsoon trekking and we are blessed to have
such kind of road trip whenever we want throughout this monsoon season. Feel this
monsoon through my lenses and comment down which picture you like the most.
Now our daughter is also a part of our “Pagalpanti” ЁЯШК She asked whenever she wants to have a ride but we insist her to wait for the monsoon. She asked me what is the monsoon?
I simply
replied it is a rainy season. She said that I know mamma, but what it is
exactly? How it works? Why clouds are black and grey? Blaa…blaaa….blaa..
Hmmm, kid’s mind have a lot of queries. I tried to explain in a kid’s manner. Monsoon is the rainy season where we have heavy and cold winds. These winds bring rain. Due to the black and grey clouds, we have rainfall.
Unfortunately
monsoon in this year 2020 adds more trouble with COVID -19. Mumbai was flooded and most of the
buildings were collapsed due to this heavy rain.
Back to the topic,ЁЯШАwe experience this greenery in the month of July to August. Monsoon start from the June and it may end in November too, kidding but yes last year we had monsoon in winter too. The bottom line is you will not find this greenery after august. Because the grasses tend to increase more and it looks like a mushy green forest.
I like
monsoon very much. Sipping a hot cup of coffee, ginger cardamom tea with kanda
bhajji and hot piping khichdi with pickle and papad, tomato soup, love to have
all this with chirping sound of rainfall. Being a foodie I love to have all monsoon season foods + festive food in our home.
What is your
favorite comfort food for the rainy season?
