400 Kms 8 Hours ..Fast & Furious Just for a 15 Min stay???

Last Evening me and couple of my old buddies decided to attend a reception of one of our ex-colleague. We set off from Blore at 4.45 PM. Initially the drive wasn't that great at all for Blore Traffic is like BSNL Telephone line "aapka dial kiya gaya number Philhaal Vyasth Hain.Krupiya Thodi Dher Baad Dial Karen" . I really wonder at times why are the roads always loaded with vehicles somehow got into the city outskirts after an hours drive and then guess what, its time for my friend to shift the gears, switch on the IPod (As the FM Signal was weak) and zap through the empty roads connecting to Chittoor. It was really a good drive through those sexy S curves. we had stopped at Kolar for a while to fill fuel into our stomachs (One in a week I forget to take lunch) . It was one of the Best MD i had . The drive continues with all my favourite AR Rehman songs. I enjoy these long drives provided you have music system in your car and atleast 3 albums of AR and defintely RDB one among those. Ofcourse on the way we met lots of Einsteins (The tractors carrying tonnes of Hay) and Sardars (Lorries filled with stock ) . Overtaking everybody on our way for the roads are so smooth and good i am sure you are bound to drive only at 90-100. I didnt even realise we drove for nearly 4 hours and soon we reached the reception point. Thinking we landed up late and were cribbing that we should have started an hour early,soon we discovered that the reception has actually not begun. Quickly we grabbed our dinner and posed at the video guy who was actually walking with the switch board on his shoulder and lots of people in the queue for food as if they are some refugees who haven't had food for days( I really wonder if they are remotely related to the bride's at all) . Soon the Bride and the Groom were on their gruelling excercise of standing for the next couple of hours. We grabbed this chance since most of them are busy trying to figure out where the food is served we greeted the couple handed over the Gift, exchanged few words took couple of snaps and left from the venue. Actually the Groom was delighted to see us ofocourse he had to be for we drove down almost 200 KMS just to shake his hand and wish him good Luck for the rest of his life for he is getting married. Soon we stared, hardly we were there for 15 Mins. I never imagined in my life i will go all the way 200kms to hug a friend. Way back we encountered lots of these Huge trucks which gave us an impression the entire Car Show Rooms in Bangalore are empty , no wonder there is a steep vehicular population growth. Stopped at CCD-Cafe Coffee Day to have a MasalTea - one of the Best CCD's i have ever been to. Way was listening some of my Kishore Daa's Goldy-oldies . Soon I was back from where i sarted. Truly "The Ends never Justify the means" as we spent only 15 mins for what we set out for and 8 hours of almsot continuous drive. It was 1 Am when i hit the Bed, even in the sleep i can feel myself still in the inertia :-). Yet Again Rai I appreciate your stupendous Velocity of Driving skills.
