So I haven't been able to write alot lately... the new job keeps me on my toes...

My India Experience..

In doing the work I do now it has required me to travel to Bangalore, India.  I arrived on friday, and did my best to sleep off some nasty jet lag... (it took me over 30 hours to get here).  American Airlines of course grounded all their planes so i had to catch 2 puddle jumpers to Chicago before the main flight... of which i slept the entire way.  The New Dehli airport is something to behold, not only was walking off the plane like walking into a blast furnace... but the traffic was insane (more on that later as it gets worse) After spending the night awake in a room.. if that's what you can call it (i had a 10 hour layover and the airport there closes literally locks the door and you have to find a place to stay for the night). I was up the next morning and on my plane to Bangalore.

Arriving in Bangalore... the temperature was nice.. and the airport was actually better than New Dehli. Off to the hotel to check in and basically I crashed hard for a few days...

I hope to update more exploits as I get the time to write.. which i have now as really besides work i'm really not doing anything.

Things I should cover:

The Traffic
The Sea of People
Working at MindTree
The Food
The TV/Music
The Culture

Various other oddities and fun stuff that I've encountered.
