The execution of the plan which was proposed nearly 2 years ago got materialized last weekend. We booked for the Hampi tour package conducted by KSTDC and the trip started around 8:30 pm on Friday. We reached Mantralayam on Saturday morning. We visited the temple there and the rest of the day went on joruney. We reached Kamalapur around 5 in the evening. We went to view the sunset however we weren't lucky enough to catch great sunset.
The next day visit to Hampi temples started around 9 am. The guide took us to the more significant places and of course, one day is not sufficient for Hampi. Then the trip ends with a visit to TungaBhadra dam.
Here I have a suggestion for KSTDC, maybe they can drop the Mantralayam from the Hampi tour package so that people can spend more time at Hampi.

A day of disappointment
I had been to the Aero show 2007 on Thursday and it was not the memorable day for me. There were no details about the show timings and hence we ended up there nearly 1:30 hours late for 2 pm show. On reaching, we got the info about the IJT's tyre burst. However the pilot was safe.
This resulted in delay and hence no aerobic display of F-18 or F-16 or MiG-35. I went for the show solely for these fighters maneuver. I was really disappointed.
However, there was a consolation with the display of Gripen and Sukhoi-30. GRIPEN a LCA from Sweden was the cynosure of the day with its great maneuvering capabilities and controlling. Very good aerobic display from the pilot.
A very disappointing day for me with no F-18 or F-16 or MiG-25 on the skies. (really an unlucky day).

Another step towards energy conservation
The article in Hindu, talks about the step taken by the KSRTC to move towards the Enerdiesel which will help in energy conservation. In addition, it will help in pollution control which is more cause of worry nowadays. Let us welcome the move by KSRTC and believe BMTC and all other government transports follow the same.
This actually remembers me aboutRamarPillai from down south Tamilnadu. Is this the time to reconsider his plea on biochemical petrol and do the feasibility study about its impact on pollution, engine performance and who knows it may help us to conserve more energy.
