Random Thoughts

I'm right now in Mumbai. Staying at a super nice hotel (Leela Kempenski) all expenses paid ;). 5 star! Its amazing!

Went to Wankhede Stadium. Closed due to renovation but I did go inside the BCCI headquarters! Wouldn't let me up to Sharad Powar's room (i did ask, haha) but the reception area was quite nice. Went to Barbourne too which is like 100m away. Most stuck up people I have ever met in my life. Wouldn't even let me see the green because I wasn't a member. :sarcasm Wanted me to walk through the torrential rain outside to go through the enterence there even though I could clearly see the ground 5 feet or so away from me. Freaking stuck up snobs. So me and my cousins snuck through another enterance upstairs where the receptionists couldn't see us. We took a lot of photos but then another guy caught us.

He freaking interrogated me. He asked me if I was a member, I lied and said yes. He asked me for my card, I said I didn't have it with me. He asked me for my pin number or something, I said I didn't know it. I then said I was from the US and was just visiting so I wouldn't know any 'of my digits' in a heavy American accent. :p The guy immediately stepped off a little (always respect for American indians for some reason, haha) but no way did he let off. He asked if any one of us new our number, I said my Mom who was 'waiting in the beamer outside' (we came in a beat up taxi). He asked me for my dads name to which I replied with a heavy sounding, politico like name and promptly left.

Quite an eventful day. Head back to chennai in 2 days.
 
It was quite awesome actually. :eek: They still have Lalit Modi's name up on the plaque thingy. Isn't he losing his job or something, or is that only for the IPL?

OH! And I sat on the same dugouts that the Mumbai Indians do (Including God himself Sachin Tendulkar) which was right outside their office. Way cool!

In Bangalore a few weeks ago I saw Cricinfo's HQ. Didn't go inside, but still way cool to get a picture by the sign :p.

Saw Shivaji park from outside here in Mumbai, where guys like Tendulkar and Gavaskar learnt all their cricket.
 
Sweet dude, its a pleasant day, hopefully you actually spend it outside enjoying the hill country/lakes

Yeah, I've been out and about, mostly following my brother's tournament though. It's at Grey Rock Golf Club or something like that, which is like in the middle of nowhere. Some 20 minutes away from the official hotels for the tournament. Pretty darn hot outside(although, not as bad as Dubai, but I've heard that this is one of the hottest summers in America), though the rain yesterday was pleasant.
