And the journey begins...













By 5.30AM, Geetha aunty and Kumara mava’s family were at our home. The bus was supposed to come by that time. It was 5.45 the bus came. Harisha hadn’t, after-all, seen the bus. I was pretty anxious - Mohana mava had demanded a Rajahamsa! A bus not comfortable, he’d have me deep-fried. To my relief, it was not that bad. At ATK’s house, we awaited the arrival of Mohana mava. He turned up – a good 45 minutes late. We had a brief stop at Vithal Kamat on Tumkur Road. The breakfast, was simply horrible. The bus entered Arsikere at 11.40 – an hour off schedule. After a 20 minute stop here, we headed towards Khandya.
As per our plans, we had speculated that it would be a 4 hour drive. Lunch at 4 would perhaps drive some of us crazy, I felt. With fingers crossed, we listened to some songs in between the complaints about them! Thanks to the driver, we were in Khandya by 3 10.
