Exhaustion

Posted by Gopal on 16 August, 2008

Will flesh this out later. Since I left Hyderabad 2 days ago:

Took a flight to Chennai and subsequent 3 hour car trip to Pondicherry. Driver, who has spent his entire life in Pondy, has never heard of French.

Stayed at a 2 star hotel with Inspector Clouseau.

Attended the CAMHADD conference and gave a Keynote lecture. Chaired a session. Felicitated 2 speakers and was felicitated twice.

Met the Lieutenant Governor of Pondy (at his Republic Day party) and spoke to the Chief Minister of this territory.

Went to Aurobindo Ashram. Will be going back today to attend folk dance, check out the French architecture, hang out at beach. CIT2 very rough so far.

I am now staying in the dorms with the team. Internet access very very limited.
