Long entry today folks...pictures coming soon. Arrived into India late Saturday night the 31st of March. The trip over on Lufthansa was uneventful...pretty much the same as my previous trip. I ate a lot and slept a lot but managed to still be tired when I arrived...so getting to sleep at the hotel wasn't going to be a problem. I'm picked up at the hotel by my driver from the Taj Krishna hotel. Last time I came to Hyderabad, I stayed at the Novotel...I stayed there because it's a little cheape...
Hyderabad, India bwulzWeek three was pretty tame....nothing much to report from a work perspective. Work went by pretty quickly...but things are starting to pick up a bit. More meetings, conference calls, etc. Also as I'm taking over this new apartment soon, I have a bit of pressure on me as well to make sure everything is good to go on my last day at the Taj. On the weekend we went out a few nights with my new friends...Friday night was Liquids and an after party at Sonny's. Saturday I spent the day furniture sho...
Hyderabad, India bwulzAs I'm typing this I can here the local Mosque calling people to prayer time -background noise that I never thought I'd hear. I realize that I've been attempting to document as much of the trip as possible, and I'm quickly realizing that it just isn't possible. I feel like every moment of everyday there is something to try to capture and share. No words can come close to what is actually happening here -it is an experience that has to be felt to really understand. I am gasping for air and clu...

Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh, India indiatrip2009... and I had plans to go out to eat at The Olive Garden (more on this later) but plans changed as our presence was requested at pre-teaching day get together in the hotel. We ate, instead, at the hotel restaurant, The Square and played it safe with a chicken sandwhich. It wasn't all that terrific, but it was safe and not spicy. We met some of the other instructors after dinner and I came back to the room to prepare for the next day. <br><br>
Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh, India dsauter... got me back for fooling him the night before when I pretended to write in Malayalam while really peeking at a picture of a "remove shoes" Malayalam sign on my iPhone). We had an early breakfast (idly and garbanzoey saucy stuff), took our final photographs, and got a ride to the bus stop. Manoj and Sumi we're worried about our safety, and so walked us to our bus, chose seats, warned Amy ...

Problem #1...there are no keys for me...the previous tenant "forgot" to leave them....riiiiiight. :-| So...task number one for the landlord is to change my locks as I ...
Hyderabad, India bwulz... the white people who had come into their village from parts unknown. They spoke no hindi, and though one man had some spotty English, I managed to crack a couple of the usual jokes using sign language, and most of the crowd laughed. Others just stared, as though aliens had landed in a flying saucer in the middle of town in front of the only lodge. . Wading through the masses and up to the room I unloaded gear, then went back down to brave the crowds and bring ...
