City Beautiful.

And another tag!

This really has been a week full of tags.

The brief, as outlined by Canace, who has apparently been lurking here awhile, is to post "...five things to do in your city - not touristy stuff, but what you love to do!" Unfortunately, there is only one city I can really call my own, Bangalore. So here is my list:

  1. Tea at the Jaymahal Palace Hotel. It's a quiet, serene, green oasis of calm where you can still hear the birds and the rustle of the wind in the tall silver oaks. That and the tea is only Rs. 20. For a pot.
  2. Sitting in Cubbon Park, with a book in one hand and "bobesity juice" in the other.
  3. Getting on a bus, and buying a ticket to the last stop. Then in reverse.
  4. Sitting on the pedestrian over-bridge on Residency Road at night. Sharing an ice-cream. It used to be sitting on the wall outside Galaxy, but this is so much nicer.
  5. Breakfasts at ICH.
Yes, I do realize that these are all in some way connected to food. But that's just me. In turn, I tag Dilettante, Chamique, Recluse and Culture Czar.

Chamique: You like tagging, no?

Madjos: Only at the old Bhagatrams. The new one's all chrome and glass.
