Hyderabad-Madikeri-Kannur-Hyderabad - Part 2

Mini Target: Reach Anantapur . Swap the ford and accent for the Innova. Reach Bangalore by night.

After getting a little lost on the ORR we head for Anantapur. To save as many people as we could, we put Bhail and Tarun in the accent. The road was absolutely delightful save for the few locations where it was decorated with mutilated dog particles. Reached Anantapur around 7PM and we had to reach Tadaka's room (which was in bangalore) and spend the night there.

Started off from Anantapur at nearly 9PM in the innova. And thanks to MLA sticker on the car we went past the toll gates unscathed. As it happens with cars and the guys. Each starts reviewing the current innova. Tarun, Bhail, Sudhi and Potti the experts. Me and Muller Sir the "nodding-in-agreement" guys. After dinner on the border of Anantapur and about 2-3 hours of driving we reached Bang-alore only to discover that we got lost. Multiple calls to Tadaka helped reach their place. We went into the rooms and left our shoes and slippers outside.

Next day, Me,Bhanu, Potti,Tarun and Sudhi came out smiling. Bhail lost his shoes and so did Muller Sir.

The plan was good. But we couldn't stick to it. And hence the trip got better.

It was 5 days away from office. 5 days of freedom. This was my first trip with friends. Anticipation of fun, adventure, excitement and more importantly of that one moment when one of us would get totally drunk and make an ass of himself and be remembered as "that totally bummed out drunk guy" for the rest of our natural lives.

 More updates will be updated soon for this over delayed post.
