Picnic @ Lalbagh

What better way to spend a Saturday afternoon, than with friends in Lalbagh and enjoying a yummy potluck lunch. We had yummy Bread Rolls by Rachana, filling Kachori & tangy Tomato chutney by Sharad, delicious Aloo-Mutter by Kusuma and a lot of Veg Pulao & Chana-chole by me.

The sunny afternoon meant we needed no excuse to first simply gorge on the lunch and then laze around on the grass. All 4 kids chased each other, with their Mom's after them :)

Lalbagh is such a quite and beautifully green place. Even the mobile network signal is weak in the garden. That means no unneccesary phone calls. All there is to do is to check out the variety of trees & flowers, watch other family picnics and also romancing couples being interupted by whistling security guards.

Plus in the evening, Janapada Jatre was organised. Stage was set opposite the Kempegowda hill-lock, where the audience could sit on the natural amphitheatre steps. Fortunately this Saturday was not as crowded as it is on Aug-15 & Jan-26 Flower Show.

Ohhhhhh, Prithi, I do envy you! I love Lalbagh and this year when I visited Bangalore in August I was so keen to go there for the Rose show but unfortunately it didn't materialize. I'm so glad all of you had a great picnic!

Hi AKS, yes beta is definitely better. I like the 'Label' feature - very useful to sort posts.

Hi Lotus, this time we just lazed & ate. Next time, I need to really explore the whole place :D
