So overall, the flight to India took around 22 hours or so total of flight time during which there were a few breaks here and there.  Got to India on Sunday early morning after waiting for a bit for someone from our team to fill out a form for their lost bag.  Luckily, all my bags made it despite the long journey.  A random note is that we flew somewhere over Iraq on our way from Paris to Bangalore (I went from LAX to ATL to Paris to Bangalore).

Training has been pretty long this week but it was good so far learning more about the company and what my job will entail.  Didn’t really get internet connection / laptops til 2 days ago and finally got it working yesterday so havent been able to update much.  I will be working with Oracle 11i on the functional side doing stuff with the finance.  Material and system has been relatively easy so far and I am catching on fairly quickly as the system is interesting or maybe I am just nerdy like that.  Many sites are limited and blocked during working hours and many game ports are also blocked leaving me to be game deprived probably during most of the time here unless I play my nintendo ds or something. 

I will be going out to explore the city tomorrow and will take a lot of pictures as usual.  However, I probably will not be able to upload but I am not sure yet.  I been keeping up with reading and am in Psalms and it has been pretty soothing so far with a good routine going schedule wise.  Have been a little busier the past few days but got a chance to work out for a lttle bit and now I am paying the price of sitting around all summer and am pretty sore. 

Indian food has been interesting and snacks have been good and all but I am definitely going to say that I am missing beef and seafood after mostly eating vegetables, rice, bread, and chicken in one form or another.

I will try to update as more things come along and hopefully be able to upload pictures soon.
