Darsan of Balaji.

Nirmala advised that Tuesdays are usually less crowded and we could join the senior citizen line for darsan. I was happy because we don't have to bypass the crowd and everything is legal. Looking at me, they did not even check the p-roof of our age. Rao and I sincerely carried our Passport/Visa books. Nirmala had her usual Devasthanam badge!!

We took an Auto-rickshaw to the bus stand. Nirmala went to the counter and bought the return tickets.
Got comfortable seats and a beautiful ride. It was hot, but, did not matter. The vegetation is enormous. Reached the senior citizen line by 9:30 a.m. In spite of security and volunteer scouts supervising the crowd, many young men and women climbed over the fence and joined the line in a very disorderly manner. They appeared to be educated young men and women - just the Indian way of life, I guess.
