I had vacation for two months, April and May. My friend who is in Madurai invited me to stay with him. So I left for Madurai on tenth of May. My friend had come to the station and took me to his house. His house was very big. There was a garden too. He took me round the garden and told me about the names of various plants. Everyday he would tell me about each plant and explain to me about its growth.
He took me to Sri Meenakshi Temple. It was a very big temple. There was a tank called golden Lotus tank in the temple. Then I visited Thirumalai Naicker Paalce. Each pillar was very huge. I wondered how big it was. The city itself was beautiful. The streets wree naked after the Tamil month. The river Vaigai is flowing there. There was no water at that time.
He took me to Chitrai Festival. I had a Darshan of Sri Alagar. There was a large gathering in the river. Then we visited the Chitrai exhibition at Tamkim Grounds. Then we visited the Gandhi Musuem where the pictures of the life and deeds of the father of our Nation were exhibited. His Father gave me valuable advice. He also taught me English in twenty days.
I returned to my town happily. We went there on a Sunday. We selected a spot the falls and kept our things there. There was not a huge crowd then. We all applied Oil on our body and stood in the falls. Water was flowing at a tremendous speed. All the oil was washed away. We enjoyed bathing in the falls. Then we ate our tiffin brought from our home.
