Thanks for nice information @ briannagodess. Recently I am planning a vacation to Bangalore and your information regarding the Bangalore outing will help me.
First of all, as a manager, you need to delegate this duty to someone lower down the ranks. But, all jokes aside, here are a few things you can do: Take them for a combo of bowling, lunch, and boating. This may seem like a strange combination, but its fun and very much possible in B'lore. Its also great because you will be able to cover all that in one day. First, head to Amoeba on Church Street, try your hand at bowling, have some fun, and then have lunch at one of the many amazing restaurants that exist in that part of the city. Then, with a full stomach, head towards Lumbini gardens. The natural beauty of the place will knock your socks off. And then let your team lose. Some people will go for pedal boating, some will want to play charades while enjoying the view, and some will just do their own thing. Its one of the best kind of outings out there because it caters to the indoor enthusiasts as well as the nature lovers.
