Day 14 At Mysore continues..

We came out of Zoo only after receiving 3-4 calls from our leader for the day Mr. Khan saheb! Obviously, with kids, leaving such a rich (in terms of diversity), well-managed and well-maintained Zoo was always going to be difficult.

Then we headed to the last point - Chamundi Temple.

That little drive was good, he explained several things on-way, we stopped to see Chandan-trees closely, had Darshan at both the temples, visited that huge Nandi, stopped en-route down the hill, to have wonderful view of the City.
Time was running out, as our plan was to reach Medicari same evening! It was already 5 pm! Finally Khan saheb left us at Medicari road. We both were satisfied, we voluntarily paid him more then was originally bargained!

We needed some eating break, so stopped at a good restaurant immediately on Madicari road. At this point, during this break, I faced a decision dilemma for the 2nd time during the trip! So a little interesting tale coming up next..

First, last set of Pics from Mysore: That includes visit to Chamunda temple, Nandi and views of city from there.
