Belgaum

We passed through Belgaum on the way to Goa... I think I ended up in Belgaum after more than a decade - probably more like 13 years! We stopped at Sanman for some chai and snacks.. As children, summers always included a trip to Belgaum for rest and shopping, and Sanman was the preferred choice. The drive itself, though barely 150 kms, seemed like a huge deal in our old Fiat, requiring a couple of stops along the way, to pull up the bonnet, fill up the radiator and let the engine cool while we rested and had chai at a roadside tapari on top of Anmod ghat.

Sweet memories of childhood...
