We planned to go to Bangalore, his hometown ( also called IT capital of India) on friday night(13th July). The journey in Volvo bus was more relaxing than in usual buses but the leg room was not enough ...anyways slept for a while after reaching his home. In the morning we first picked up the vehicle from his grandfathers place( who lives nearby only) and then went to mall. All along the way as Sachin rightly mentioned, I could spot an IT company.We first went to Forum mall( most well known in the city) followed by lunch at Mc D ( sachin broke his record of not eating at Mc D :) )....then we went to the National Market...a cheap stuff location closeby...after which we headed to most talked about road in Bangalore (MG Road)...where we had some eye cleaning activity and some snacks as well.....being a saturday, there was full rush ...later after strolling around for a while we headed for Cafe Coffee day where Sachin introduced me to some of his engineering friend group....after chatting for a while we headed for dinner at CafeY in one of sachins friend car (Scorpio).....and after finishing of with dinner...back home...had some discussion with sachin's dad...thereafter as we didnt feel like sleeping (both being owls )...we planned to watch DieHard4 ...which went on till 4 am .....zzzzz till about 10 am...Next day after having breakfast went to Lal Bagh Garden in the afternoon around 2 pm...after which Nandi temple......then back home at around 3.45 pm for lunch.....as I didnt had many days to stay back and enjoy the good home cooked food made by Sachin's mother...I grabbed the opportunity and ate...ate and ate and ate.....a whole lot more till I got tired of eating ......huuuf damn good food...just could not stop myself from eating....Sachin's mom cooks very well....I had even plans of getting some chappatis while on way back to chennai ;)......In the evening we went to sachin's grandfather house who lives close by only, his aunt and cousin sister had also come there.......well as sachin had just returned from singapore...the highlight of the evening was sachins convocation pics :).....I felt good to meet his family members and relatives..... spoke for sometime with his grandfather......oh yah and spoke quite a bit with his father....exceeded my normal speaking limits.
Kudos to Sachin for planning out the trip!
