Chennai Heat

Sorry for not keeping up with my posts, I'm currently in Chennai playing with the KIS Ultimate Frisbee Team, in the annual national Ultimate Frisbee tournament, Chennai Heat. I had planned on doing my posts about Auroville in the evening but that has proven more difficult because I'm very tired in the evenings. Tomorrow is the last day of the tournament, we will be back in Kodai on Monday morning. My blog posts will resume on Monday, but for now CHENNAI HEAT! Man, is it hot here! And this is considered winter! At least we are playing on the beach and we get a nice breeze every once in a while. Who knew Ultimate Frisbee was so exhausting. We lost all but one of our games (5 games in total, one yesterday). But we were having fun, at least I was. The other teams are pretty good, as most of them have been training together for at least a couple of months. Our team was kinda patched together last minute, whoever wanted to come could. Oh well, hopefully we can win a game or two tomorrow. This is officially the first time I've ever played, but hey, at least I'm having fun, supporting the team and seeing a lot of Chennai in the process. We either walk everywhere or take auto rickshaws. After our 8:30 game this morning we had dosa's for breakfast than myself and my friend Noor took an auto to pondi bazaar where I got a towel and a skirt and a book on learning Tamil, so hopefully I can put my spare time to use and learn some basic Tamil. All in all it was a great day, we all played hard and had some great sportsmanship.
