Raining, Raining, Raining......















Its raining..like you can not imagine here. Today on the way to the call center the roads were flooded in some sections with cars stalled out.

The ironic India continues to amaze me as we drive along the flooded streets, which are likely filled with sewage, trash, and anything else the water could grab, and you see the buildings, probably about 30 of them being constructed for future outsource contracts. These buildings look just like they do at home, empty concrete shells that will eventually look like modern office buildings. In front of them are pictures of what they will look like when completed, beautiful and sparkling ready to be inhabited by the highest bidder.

Along the streets they are attempting to install fiber, or more internet lines. The brightly colored cables float on the side of the road...no one thought to protect them before the downpour.

We leave today to head to Delhi. Tomorrow we head to the Taj!

I was so sad that the driver didn't let us stop and swim in one of those "ponds."
