Another fabulous breakfast today at the Leela. I ordered pancakes instead of french toast, it was very good, but the french toast is better. I had a new waiter this morning, the chef sent him back to the table to verify that I really wanted pancakes & why I was not ordering the french toast again. The coffee is good, I like that each cup is made fresh & served in a french press.
I took the walkway over to work this morning, I was not ready to play frogger with the traffic. Sushant walked me back over at the end of the day; he made it seem so effortless to cross thru the mad traffic. We ventured down the street for lunch, I know I stick out in the crowd, lots of people staring, but I just embraced it and smiled. :)
Although I had an exciting taxi ride in from the airport on Saturday, Karthik shared his much more eventful experience with me. Thankfully it was him & not me because I would have freaked out!!! His taxi driver fell asleep at the wheel! craziness! The driver had been up for days & should not have been driving. Karthik had him pull over; he took over the wheel and drove himself while the driver rested. WOW!!!
I am glad that you are enjoying your trip so far! Hope it stays like that because I heard one or two things from Linus about your Monday afternoon :)
ReplyDeleteHey Christine,
ReplyDeleteTried to look for you at the Arrival gates in Bengaluru airport on Sat night at 2:30 - 3 AM ~ish - couldn't find you. :) My flight took off at 3:30 AM.
Have a safe trip.

What I do when I played frogger when going between the Leela and Intel is to find somebody who is slower than you and walk down traffic from them. I also heard that you want to maintain a constant pace. The drivers take that into account and drive accordingly. A co-worker said that people get hit because they stop all of the sudden and the car/bicycle was expecting them to keep walking.
