Its always good to go back home. But not this time. Lukewarm feeling, thinking about drive coming to end. Ya, this was the last day of the trip.
580km drive covered in 8 hours, that includes 2 pit stops, 20 mins each.
First pitstop @ BP Ghar Dhaba, Chikballapur, where i brimmed up the tank with 10 ltr fuel. It was happy feeling to see Kamat Upachar Hotel located here. Had a hot breakfast with refreshing cuppa coffee. This petrol bunk located 40km from Bangalore Devanahalli Airport, would be an ideal R&R spot for folks driving to Hyderabad

BP Ghar Dhabas.. Loaded with facilities like Restaurant, Rest Room, ATM(not at all places)
And the best part..accepting credit cards for fuel.. gives a good feel.
Very inviting for the much deserved R&R, during long drives.
After 17km from Kurnool, there is BP Ghar Dhaba, Manavpad. Brimmed up the tank with 19 ltr fuel. This place got a restaurant, restroom etc.

In my words, Long drives are soul searching experiments. One realizes the inner self.. This drive was one among them.
Felt a sense of accomplishment, travelling all the way to southern most tip of India and reaching back home.
Indeed, a wonderful start for all future long journeys in queue.
