I’ll write more on the trip later, but my cousin Vikki and I took a half day in Chennai and typed up a play (coup de foudre) for performance at Alliance Francaise on his computer, about a tamil boy (Swami) who goes to France to meet his friend, falls in love with another girl there and tries to improve his French to ask her out. While he’s doing that and following her around, she notices him and learns Tamil to impress him too. Was a funny plot. I’m so proud of Vikki—he managed to arrange an all-female but one cast for himself 
.
