I'm sure y'all had a great time without me!
I walked out of the airport at 2:30 and seriously considered telling the driver to take me there, however, after seeing how this guy stopped twice asking for directions to my place -- frankly, I could have driven the damn car myself from the airport to the intersection of Ramaswamy and Dr. Ranga Rd.! -- I said forget it. and yes, had given him a note written in Tamil on how to find my place!
OT, but what the frack is with these airport drivers that don't know where the hell they're going?!? In all my trips to Chennai, I have NEVER, EVER gotten a pre-paid driver who could find his way out of a paper bag! Has anyone ever heard of a street map?!? HELLO, DRIVER, WANT TO USE MINE?!?
Someone tell me how to say in Tamil, "no tip for you because you don't know there the F you're going!"
"Have a nice day!"
What fried my asana was that when we got closer to the area I kept telling him how to get my place -- I knew where I was going -- but he got out to ask directions!

Nice size group for the lunch at Mahamudra today: six of us.
Jean-Philipe, newincity, Nick-H, SunilB, thejag, Wanderer22.
Sorry you couldn't join us, Sama.
The triple-scoop chocolate dessert is addictive and highly recommended. Unfortunately they ran out before we could order a second and third helping.

The race is on. Will Nick-H make it to 50,000 posts before I make it to 500?
Any bets/guesses how many days/weeks Nick will make 50,000?
That triple scoop chocolate sundae looked so good yesterday that I went back today just to get one.
Sorry you couldn't make it Sama, perhaps we'll have another opportunity to meet later in the month before we both have to fly home.
It was good meeting everyone and putting faces with names.
