After leaving Schiphol yesterday Nicole and I had a long flight. After a stop at Delhi we finally arrived at the Hydrabad airport. The total flight time was about 9 hours.

The airport in Hydrabad is open for only 8 months and was very nice to see.

At the airport a taxi was standing by to bring us to our luxury hotel.

As you can see the traffic to the airport was quite hectic. I now fully understand why ADP doesn’t let employees drive. It’s a total disaster area. I understood from Sudaram that the traffic in Pune is worse than it is here. I can’t imagine. The hotel is, as I stated, very luxurious. You can see on the pictures below.

We had several meetings today with project leaders of the office in Hydrabad. Those were very informative and give me a positive impulse. We can certainly make a success of our office in Pune. Unfortunately I have not been able to take pictures of our office in Hydrabad yet, but I will try tomorrow. Today everything is to overwhelming, especially with all the security. In out hotel and in all the airports there either police or military with machine guns guarding the perimeter.

Today was the last day I was working at my normal workspace. A day in witch a lot still had to be done, and its all done?
My esteemed colleague Wai-kin Tsang took over the last projects and now all focus is set on the new working experience in India.

On Sunday I will depart at 11.15 hours local Dutch time to New Delhi. From there we will travel to Hyderabad to meet the colleagues working for ADP inc.

Here a picture of the ADP office in the Netherlands as I was leaving late in the evening.
