Sep 15 - Inorbit, newest mall in the city

Everyone was talking about this mall and had to check it out.  The mall is big and more stores yet to open.  I heard so much about the stores in the mall and was a bit disappointed!  Shopper Stop, Life Style, Mebaz, Fab India, Kalanjali, Max and many more stores had an outlet in the mall.  The lonely store where I found some interesting stuff and picked up couple of tops is And. 
  That is Durgam Cheruvu from the mall.

Aug 20 - Visit to an intensive care unit


Visited a family member in the intensive care unit and had to wear plastic/disposable socks before going into the unit.  Interesting part was, the security guard asked us to put on  the socks with my sandals on!
