we arrived last last night in Chennai, where our real work will begin. Zak is meeting here with a few coders (one of whom he's worked with for along time remotely).
the town is bustling and dirty. the tour guide book does not reccomennd it and few tourists come to this part of the country.
jeff has a friend here in town who is spending the summer working at an orphanage with children who have HIV.
We met up with her and her friends last night after we got in...they are all leaving tomorrow as it is the end of their summer stay. We went to a little bar in a very nice hotel, and we were suprised to see it close at 1130PM - not uncommon for this area which is very conservative, muslim, and where drinking is generally frowned upon.
we did not mind the early close as we both were exhausted from a long day of travel.
this morning marks Zak's first real day of work - he is staying in the apartment to get some work done, and has sent Jeff to the orphanage to have an experience of a lifetime. I am sure there will be stories and pictures to follow.
thats all for now,
Zak and Jeff
