Total: 1300 KM
After 4 months of solitude, finally got another wonderful
opportunity to rev the engine. And this time I was super excited as I was
driving down to Bangalore from Hyderabad for the first time. I had been to
Bangalore but this was special. Firstly, I was going to finalize my marriage
and to meet the in-laws. Secondly, Hyd to Bang was new for me and pretty
exciting as well. So here I was, very hectic weekend plan, leaving Saturday
morning, meet my niece in the evening, Sunday the date for interview with in-laws,
Monday drive back and attend office. Very packed and hectic but real fun too.
Day 1: 24-Jul-2010 (Saturday) Left from Hyderabad early
morning 5 AM, reached Bangalore before lunch easily. Although lost my way a
little bit when trying to reach my cousin’s home where I was planning to put
up, but somehow managed amongst that excavation work done for Bangalore metro
railway. In the evening went to meet my niece, had a good time. The highway to
Bangalore from Hyderabad was just superb without any hitches, a lot of toll plazas but I never
mind paying if I get good roads to drive.
Day 2: 25-Jul-2010 (Sunday) Early morning 7 AM went to meet
a friend and ex-colleague, as there was no other time left to meet her. Had a good time with her
after meeting her since Kolkata days. From there went to meet in-laws and her
folks. Came back after lunch and in the evening my niece came to my cousin’s place
with her mom.
Day 3: 26-Jul-2010 (Monday) Left from Bangalore early
morning around 5 and reached Hyderabad before 12 PM as I planned. Since my
office timing was from 12 PM so I planned it that way. Luckily I managed to
reach on time without any hassles. Thanks to superb roads and thanks to my
amazing Car. Ford Fiesta – GO FIDA. Once again I was FIDA on this master
machine. What an irony, leaving from banaglore in the morning to attend office
in HYD and that too on time. This was really incredible.
