The day started out quite early even as I slept late around 3 AM. I felt I was almost starving as I woke up and rushed to the hotel rooftop for the buffet breakfast. The South Indian fare here was delicious and just what I needed to kickstart my day.
I got back to working on my presentation after the breakfast and we checked out by 11AM to move to my friend's home. Aparna, is one of my favorite people in the world, we've been friends for a very long time.
She was in town and wanted us to stay with her and her husband Adeep, who also happens to be a very good friend of mine. So 
She was home when we arrived and it was great to see her after many months. Last time we met was when I was recovering at the hospital and that wasn't the best of circumstances. So I was thrilled to see her again in happier times!
Due to a very hectic week at work I wasn't ready with my presentation for the 2nd India Steemit Accelerator and spent the afternoon hours prepping my agenda for the conference, but not before we put on some Punjabi music and goofed around for a bit!
Remember, there is no get together of friends in India without Biryani!
Saturday evening was quite relaxed, as Aparna came back home from work to cook some mouth watering Chicken Biryani for us. We had our friend Vardhan join us for dinner. He's an actor in regional TV soaps and is now moving onto acting in movies. We had a few drinks with kebabs and grills as the conversations flowed.
It was midnight and we decided we needed to get some ice cream and left for 'Corner House.' It is one of the most famous places for ice cream desserts in Bangalore but sadly we were late and they had shut down. So we settled for 'Baskin Robbins' for some late night treats.
We belong to the same city and our cars bear similar number plates and seeing as they were all lined up, and jobless as we were, we took a picture!
Sunday was the big day and luckily the presentation went great! I'll have it live tomorrow.
Finally it was Sunday night when I managed to get some sleep! I had slept a total of 7 hrs over 3 days leading up to the event so it felt great to wake up late on Monday morning knowing that I just have to drive back home.
and 
We left Bangalore late in the afternoon and stopped for supper at the Coffee Day outlet on the highway where we also met up with some of my friends who were also driving back to Mangalore. We had skipped lunch and I made sure everyone ate well before leaving. There was some great conversations with my friends on the drive back and I couldn't help but think how road trips are a great way to bond with your friends.
We reached Mangalore around midnight and we managed it without a single break after the supper stop!
I sat to work when I finally reached home and pulled an allnighter. I was happy that I set some goals and achieved them. It also felt great to come back home after a successful event to a proud set of parents and also receive this very cool biker keychain as a gift from
