Hyderabad, India - Day Zero

Just got into Hyderabad, India. IATA: HYD is a brand new state of the art airport. Glass and metal and modern construction. There was an egress security checkpoint to pass your bags through a scanner and walk through a metal detector. Funny, 50% of the people (me included) were setting off the metal detector, nobody took computers out of their bag, and they just waved us through. Maybe just because it's late at night and they didn't care? Funny anyway that's a lot of hullabaloo if you're simply going to ignore the detector results.

Indian School of Business (ISB) is ~40km from HYD. It was dark and 11:30PM here but there were TONS of people out in the streets and along the streets for the whole drive. Even it appeared street construction happening. Maybe you just work when the weather isn't hot or raining. It's monsoon season in Southeast India now. Motorcycles were all 10 year old 150cc bikes and scooters and outnumbered cars 2:1. ISB has a giant campus right across the street from Infosys headquarters campus and right next door to Microsoft's Asia headquarters. Off to sleep now...
