The city the called me ☺️

Here's about my Thiruvananthapuram trip 😊

I had a desire to visit Thiruvananthapuram (TVM) City and had it on my to-do list for this year. Two days ago when i accidentally checked the was tickets available on the train for Coimbatore to TVM. I immediately pounced on it and booked my tickets. My desire was to visit the city's famous Padmanaba swamy temple, go to the museums nearby and also visit the beach. As luck would have it everything went as per plan 🙂 

Initially i had tough time finding a hotel room because the city was hosting a film festival. So the hotel rooms were all filled by film students and film buffs. I somehow managed to get a room, got ready and went down for breakfast. I was surprised by the option that i had. The had Puttu with channa gravy. It was my favourite and i relished that yummy dish. 

I did have to meet a few customers and I managed to do that quickly. Enroute i managed to make friends with an auto driver who was very kind to me. After that i went to the temple. It was very huge and i was amazed by its grand setup. There was a lot of people and i had to wait for almost an hour to see the deity. It was truly a marvelous sight and enjoyed the sight. As i got out i also got in queue to have the lunch offered at the temple. The rice used in Kerala is different, that's big and red in colour. It has a delicious taste. I enjoyed the lunch and got back to my room. I was tired so i took a quick nap. After an hour i went to the wax museum, Art gallery, royal palace tour and finished the sightseeing with a visit to the beach for sunset 😊

As i write this great days experience I'm really glad i took a day off for myself and had fun 😀

I also managed to finish a half marathon recently 😄 it was a challenging one but i managed to finish it. Good learning experience on grit, patience and pers
