2009 Himalayan Odyssey

One of my friends forwarded me the following videos of the 2009 Himalayan Odyssey! Looks interesting! Maybe I'll do it one day?

A walk in the clouds!

Aviation industry has advanced so much!! Especially this Lufthansa airplane that I took from Chennai to Frankfurt during my last Europe Trip! Take a look at the following pictures (click on them to see the text better).




So yeah.. if you ever decide to go for a walk on the Airplane wings just to stretch your tired limbs.. please make sure you don't go beyond the marked areas! Could be hazardous :-P.

Office trip to Fisherman's Cove - Catamaran Ride!

Last weekend was good fun. Our company took us to Fisherman's Cover for a day outing. We had a brilliant time. It definitely helped us all get to know each other better and become closer as a team. These small things definitely count in improving work atmosphere. It's also nice to see that the company cares for its employees!
The catamaran ride was the highlight of the day. A superb ride on a motorized catamaran cutting through the waves. We reached the open seas and at about a distance of a kilometer from the shore, the catamaran's stopped. We then jumped out of the boats (like in the song from Yuva / Ayutha Ezhuthu) into the sea. It was a great feeling to just float around in the sea. It was a little scary initially. I was the first guy to jump out. It was a little unnerving to go underwater knowing that there is no land underneath in close proximity. Nevertheless, GREAT FUN!

Ultimate once again..

So, this morning was the second successful game of Ultimate Frisbee in Chennai. It felt great once again to run like crazy.. to let go of all inhibitions and just run!

I thought it would take me a long time to get Ultimate going in Chennai... like it did in ISB. But, thanks to the ISB guys' enthu now, its much easier to take off. We have about 5-6 regular Ultimate players from ISB here in Chennai. So, it feels great to have a team ready to play with. Thanks to Mama who's gotten me out of my stupor by organizing the first game last weekend.
About 5 new people have joined us today.. and I hope soon we'll have enough players to start playing regular full 7 member games.

The battle for sustainment will follow now. Lets hope that people will be as enthusiastic about it 2 months from now, just like they felt today!
