My Visit to Bangalore Palace!

This weekend I happened to visit Bangalore palace - 4 of us - my dad, mom, saloni(my room mate) and I.
As soon as we reached the palace, the guards directed us to the ticket counter. We went there and my dad asked for 4 tickets. The lady at the counter screened me from top to bottom, then said,"Below 18, only half ticket, sir!!".
My dad asked,"So, you mean you will give us only three and a half tickets??"
The lady said,"Yes!"
Can you believe it???
I simply recalled the advertisement - "meri twacha se meri umar ka pata hi nahi chalta - santoor santoor!!"
Coming to the review about palace, it wasn't that great, as I have seen Mysore palace - which is huge and fully commercialized where as this palace was not even maintained properly.They rent out the place for weddings, approximately 1.75L per hall room and 4.5L for just the ground area.

Any takers??
