Hyderahhhhh!bad

The weekend saw me doing one of those weekend trips that life has lately seen very few of.

The agenda: ACE2006 at the ISB.

One more city, right? Not.

Hyderabad 'Dakhkhan' as my grandparents would have called it, is cool. The cantonments remind me of the more innocent Bangalore of just four years ago, the roads are blissfully flat, and 'Gachi Bowely' is all wide open spaces and breezy campuses (Tangent: Is the plural of campus campii?).

To add to which, how can you go wrong with a city where you can get into a rick, and ask to be taken to Paradise?
