Hyderabad!!!!

Its my Third week in Hyderabad, and I am already wondering as to why I had not visited this beautiful city earlier. Even though it has the usual pitfalls of an up-and-coming city, with traffic snarls, bad roads et al, it still manages to capture one's imagination in a way that few other cities can. The Hussain Sagar is very pretty, but only till you are a safe distance, get closer and your nostrils will face a volley of smells ugly enough to remind you of Yamuna. The people here are very helpful and simple, but then one does not get to see the opposite sex in a way one would do in Delhi or Mumbai. BTW, I have seen more cricketers in my hotel during the past two weeks than I have my entire life. And we are going to watch the IPL game between Hyderabad and Delhi later tonight, should be fun.
I have been enjoying work immensly, details of which I cannot disclose here because of McKinsey confidentiality policies. My team is an awesome amount of fun, totally disfunctional :D . I guess the next month and a half should be fun!!!! Will get back to posting....
