With the unfortunate and sad demise of Rajkumar and the chaos that followed in the city of gardens (It was in fact !), my trip was cancelled. Three days meant to be spent in Bangalore was now to be spent in Hyderabad. No work, just fun was the motto and I stood by it. Thanks to Baddy also. Day 1: Woke up late. Some FRIENDS episode to kickstart the day before leaving for lunch. Went to an ongoing book exhibition and spent more than I had planned. Gorged at Ching Ling. Eating would have been an understatement. Watched Groundhog Day. A nice movie from Baddy's list of cult classics. After that went to IMAX to watch long pending Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire. Came back and watched Yahaan. Went to sleep after a late night dinner of noodles. Day 2: Had plans to go to Chilkur Balaji temple. Supposed to get up at 0500 hrs. Then late night sleepers are not suited as early risers. So had to delay the plan till 0700 hrs. A cool and pleasant early morning drive of around 25 kms from my place. A bit of photography was also done on our way.More about Chilkur later. Spent around 2 hours there. Got back by 1000 hrs. Praveen came for lunch. Went to Old Fox. No guess, gorged again. Went off to Club 8 for a drink and watched England getting battered by Yuvraj. Then a nice siesta followed. Went to Central and to Odyssey.Nando came to stay over. Smirnoff ruled the night. Day 3: Woke up at 1000 hrs with some after effects of the russian water. A hot black coffee and bottles of water got my system flushed. Watched Snatch. A Guy Ritchie flick. Well a great MOFO movie. Brad Pitt ruled. Home delivered lunch. And then Season Four of FRIENDS till evening. Well my trip woudlnt have been more great than this. Would have been no less fun also. Four movies, music, long drives. Never better. Anyway, no matter whatever comes... Keep them coming. Hey I forgot also got some books on Satyajit Ray which I ordered before and Baddy got his refrigerator. Some pics have also been uploaded. technorati tags: blog travel hyderabad photography movies
