I had crossed the 300 posts mark with the previous 'Wagah Border' post and I didn't notice it, but my son did! That was my favourite post and I am happy that it became my 300th post!
First I must thank my son, as usual, who pushed me into writing and it has brought out a different Sandhya out of me! Thanks to my old and new blogger friends who comment and encourage me, I seem to be more interested in writing now than before. The change in writing is drastic from my 'Amarnath post' to the 'Wagah Border' post.
A BIG 'THANK YOU' to all!
I had promised Ashok who awarded me the 'Versatile blogger' award that I would nominate people for passing on this award in my 300th post. But I feel that all my friends seem to be good writers and the list might be too long, though I know that I was happy to read Ashok's view about my writing! But I can't prepare a list like you, Ashok! So, I am awarding all my friends this award now:
Thank god, I remembered my promise! A couple of other awards were also given to me and I have to write posts on them. I will do them soon!
I am posting some photographs which were taken from our balcony, one early morning, last week to make this post more interesting. We, in Chennai, seem to have a short rainy season this year. The sun was not very bright and it was going in and coming out of clouds and it was interesting to watch it! Some snaps are here:

The scene was looking better here. It was not captured well in my camera (panasonic). Son says it was because of the grey weather. Or I should have taken with the Nikon, which I don't use much!

That's lovely, Sandhya! Heartiest congrats to you! May you continue to write with the same passion! I love interacting with you both via blogs and on FB
That's super. But your blogging frequency has reduced off late. Good that you've got so much greenery to see outside your window. Most of us are forced to stare at the concrete jungle!
Here's to the next 100 - Make it quick :)
