My 4 Day Hyderabad Trip -- Part2

My mobile had started ringing from the time I was on the outskirts of Hyderabad, asking me to connect for work, as user testing/demo was on at the client location.Finally reached home @ 11 and connected to work for 2-2.5 hrs till around 1.30.Then went thro ISB interview experiences on PG and a few random page on the ISB website , had lunch at a nearby andhra mess , dressed up in the stupid suit with tie and left for my interview @ around 2.15. From here on the ISB part shall be covered in a seperate post.Came back at around 6.45 changing three share autos on the way.Carrying a great looking new Arrow suit in my hands , I sat beside the autodriver in the front all the way. People were staring at me.But as usual I dint care :)
Subbu did not come home from office that day as month end work made him work late into the night.Had dinner with one of his friends DK and his junior and worked for sometime.Got up in the morning and walked over to Oracle office in Hyd(15 mins pleasant walk) and worked the whole day on a stupid bug which was finally resolved at the end of the day @ around 9 pm.Then took some printouts about Hyd from wikipedia and wikitravel and was eagerly looking fwd to the weekend as two of my roomates/classmates Vijayan and SelvaKumar(Hencforth referred to as V and SK) were also coming to Hyd for the weekend.Had a late dinner(around 12 when we were done with it) at some medium range multicusine restraunt, which tasted like any other hotel in its category.Fancy names, fancy prices, but totally bland taste :)
After the dinner me and subbu went for a looooong walk(nealy an hour and half) talking about anything and everything under the sun.We had a lot to catch up on as we were meeting after nearly 2-2.5 years and I am not that good at keeping in touch with ppl over phone.It was nearly 3 am when we finally retired for the day.V and SK arrived home at around 10 am. It took all of us till around 12.30 to brush bath and get ready to go out.Had late breakfast at some local restaurant and proceeded towards some Park on the way to Panjagutta in Secunderabad.
