Atlast a long weekend- niceone indeed !!

Its been an eon since I put a blog post. I was eagerly waiting for a long weekend. Thanks to "Vijayadashami".I have got much needed reprieve after long time.
I went to Mysore on Wednesday evening. Thursday was "Vijayadashami". I reached satellite bus stand by 4.30pm. There was an interminate queue of people to take tickets to Mysore.To my luck, when I thought of joining the queue, KSRTC people announced that special non-stop buses have been arranged and asked the people to get into to the bus and tickets would be issued on the way. I was lucky enough to get into one of the buses after much struggle:Being thin will help in such situations :).
As soon as we reached "Kengeri", there was road block,people had blocked the road.People were frustrated, as they had been waiting for hours to catch the Mysore bus at Kengeri. Even though it was a non-stop bus, driver and conductor were just mute spectators as people started boarding the bus.The bus was jam packed, people standing on every inch of the bus floor!!,my feet were spared!!!. Some of the people who could not board the bus started banging the bus from outside. Never, had i seen such a herd of people visiting Mysore!!! It looked like almost whole of Bangalore was migrating to Mysore,all because of Dasara!!!.

This weekend was an ideal one for me. I spent much of time eating(outside) and shopping for my marriage :). I have tried almost all kinds of victuals available in chat street. (behind Marimallapa's School, near our Jogi Mahesha's house).I would recommend the following:
1. Mallige Dose.
2. Shavige.
3. Masala Dosa.
4. Badam Milk with ice cream.

I would also like to recommend few eating places with this post. This would help all connoisseurs of food :) @ Mysore
@Saraswathipuram
1. Bonda & Bajji (1st main)
2. Churmuri(1st main... baLal circle churmuri is also good ).
3. Cane jucie (near 2nd main , 5th cross)
4.Masala Coke & Fruit juices(Nature Fresh near bake point).
5. Dahi Puri(@ Aggarwal Chats)
6. GTR Masala Dosa(chamundi puram).
7. Set Dosa with butter (Ramya Hotel)
8. Pani Puri (@ Mahesh Prasad).
9. Strong Coffee(@ Mahesh Prasad).
10.Corner House (Icecream corner, V.V.Mohalla).
11. Amruth Gobi center(dry gobi, as there will be no beLLuLi in that) .

Apart from eating & shopping, I also paid bills like KEB,Water and booked Gas cylinder, Bank work.. uff... too much work done!!!The sad thing is my parents were not at my sister's place, otherwise , I could have spent my night's talking with them.
One more work i forgot to mention!!!.....
