Well Behaved Boy Enjoying Taaza Thindi Dosa
While elders were queuing up for a taste of the miraculous south Indian dishes at Taaza Thindi in Bangalore, this young man oblivious of the drooling world surrounding him, found a seat to polish off his dosa (potato mash inside rice flour wrap with coconut chutney) in peace. A dosa is best eaten with the hands; it is rather tough with knife and fork.
Taaza Thindi is a restaurant in Bangalore to rave about with very reasonable prices. People queue up on weekends and even week days to get at the dosas, vadas and idlis.
Coconut Seller on Bike
The coconut seller shouts something like ‘Kreey’ and attracts customers. If he gets a buyer he stops chops the head of the coconut, inserts a straw and offers fresh, cool coconut water on the spot. This gentleman was attracting customers of Taaza Thindi in Jayanagar, Bangalore.
Coconut Grove School with Coconut Catcher
It rains food here in the form of coconuts. If it were not for the net the surrounding apartments would surely be called nut-cracker suites.
Fruit Seller of Thippasandra Market
What a beautiful name-Thippasandra. A market in Bangalore. This fruitseller adds some color to the street scene.
Bengaluru Clouds Disrupt TV signals
Television is such a big part of daily schedules that its disruption sends my life for a six. In Bengaluru the Sun during the late monsoons comes out rarely. The pleasant breeze is marvelous but the Sun is kept under covers by the clouds.
The above signal is common for Satellite television reception.

Finally Bangalore Blue Sky
My first view of Bengaluru blue sky in ten days. It has been cloudy and raining intermittently. No one seems bothered by the absence of sunlight. The weather is humid turning pleasantly cool at night. A nice breeze blows all the time and it is blissful sitting under the trees.
