A Trip to Bangalore..
I was in Bangalore from 6th Mar to 11th Mar... that was an awesome trip !!
I planned the trip all of a sudden and everything happened in an hour !! Was just thinking what I shud do in the holi holidays.. and all of a sudden .. bangalore came to my mind and I asked Guggi and DP whether its right time to visit them. and they said YES .. thats it.. booked tickets in an hour and there I goooo !!!
The flight was supposed to leave at 9:25 pm and I left the office at 6 pm and was getting ready.. then I heard a sound "tweet .. tweet ..!! tweet.. tweet ..!! SMS ..!!" thats my mobile.. and guess what.. there was a SMS saying that flight is delayed by an hour.. I thought thats good.. I can have something and leave for the airport.. 30 minutes past.. again talked the tweety..!! This time it says.. flight rescheduled to 11:50 .. WTF ??? anyways.. I reached airport at 10:35 pm.. and then I came to know that the actual time is 12:30 am pheww... !! at last, flight departured at 1:00 am. I reached bangalore at 2:40 and the airport was 38 kms from the place where Guggi stays. My friends managed to find out the bus number which shuttles between Forum and Airport. so.. waited for that bus for 30 mins... and finally reached home at 4:00 am.. now thats called a journey .. ;)
Seeing my friends after almost 2 yrs.. so we passed time talking abt the things we have done in this two yrs.. abt the jobs.. abt the current market situation.. and so on.. and its already 7:00 am.. then we went for a cup of coffee...
At Leela Palace..
Day 1 : My friends actually skipped office that day cleverly.. one said he was sick, one said he would be working from home.. and the other said his parents came to see him :D :D I really liked that ;). We had lunch in a good south Indian restaurant (Meghana) that serves proper south Indian thali.. that was awesome .. bcoz I didnt pay the bill ;) !! Then we went to Corner House and had some desserts.. :D
In the night Guggi, DP, Rajesh, Sridhar (yeah he is alive ..!!) and me went to Leela palace and enjoyed bowling there.. with a glass of beer ;) DP crossed the century mark (some 128 I guess) while we were busy concentrating on something else :P .. that was a good experience too .. !!
STRIKE ... Bingo ..!!!!
Get.. Set.. Go ..!!
Day 2 : Went for GoKarting in RT nagar .. and this time Dev and Ritul joined us.. that was really great ..!! enjoyed racing there and DEV was the show stopper.. he bumped into the side blocks for five times already.. and when he bumped for the sixth time, he was disqualified from the race. Ritul managed to reach the spot after an hour.. but he didn't join us in the race.. (phat gayi uski .. :P). So he bacame cameraman and caught Dev doing this stunt.. coool..!!
Dev.. Busted ..!!
New racer for Force India Team ..!!
Then we went to Brigade Rd .. one of the happening places in Bangalore.. and it was worth going there .. ;) good fest for the eyes.. ;) DP ni aapatam maa valla kaaledhu inka.. and we played bowling there ..
Last two days I did some shopping, explored other south Indian restaurants, played some games, watched some movies, enjoyed Sehwag's blasting .. and met some friends.. and returned to Mumbai on 11th evening. Overall that was a great trip and we enjoyed a lot.. Credit goes to Guggi, DP and Raji. ;)
