The good juice on Bangalore
It can be difficult to tell if a restaurant is any good to eat at if you don't have local knowledge. Often the best way to tell is by the number of people eating there. I passed this fruit juice shop in Bangalore and it was overflowing with people, so I naturally had to investigate.

Sri Ganesha Fruit Juice Centre
The place was the Sri Ganesha Fruit Juice Centre, and sure enough they make a great juice, worthy of a thronging crowd.

Trivandrum to Bangalore
The low cost airline industry in India has boomed in the last few years, which has made getting around the subcontinent much easier. I have been travelling via the usual Indian way of overnight sleeper trains and buses.
There is a train from Thiruvananthapuram to Bangalore which takes 17 hours, which effectively would have wiped out two days of my trip. Fine if you are here for six months, but I only have four weeks so the option of an internal flight has saved me a couple of days.
I flew with Air Deccan, India's first low cost airline. I went to book online, but the booking facility wouldn't accept international credit cards, which seems ridiculous for an airline website. I had to call the call centre and I faced the same problem. They gave me a reservation number which would enable to pay for and pick up my ticket at the airport.
After all this I was a wondering if my ticket would be at the airport, but fortunately it was.
