Howdy, everybody. This is my forth trip to India for performing prayer. Usually we went there in the end of the year or early of the year. This time is the exception that we went there in late March.

Location: Bangalore/Puttaparthi/Tirupati/Mysore

Weather: Very hot in Puttaparthi & Tirupati (>35C)

Moderate in Bangalore & Mysore (~32C)

Traffic: Hmm...how should I describe this? The traffic there is worse compared to Malaysia. I would say that all types of vehicles you can see there ... ranges from bull-cart to Benz. And the drivers there like to use HORNS. I dun think that with my skills I can drive there. :P

Food: Since this is prayer trip, most of the time we ate vegetarian food. Food is ok and not that expensive. If you eat at 5 star hotel, that is different stories... :P

Shopping: I don't really do shopping there as the price of clothes is not cheap. Maybe ladies can buy some saree (Indian traditional clothes). Oh.. yeah.. India do offers cheap and good quality precious stones like Ruby, Saphire, Cat eye.... Silk and Brass items are worth to buy stuff too.
