Visiting Sun Bangalore

me directing a film

After seeing my daughter graduate from Woodstock School last week, this week I’m visiting Sun’s engineering center in Bangalore, to meet colleagues – and film them!

I haven’t been to Bangalore since 1980, when it was a sleepy little town. No more! The ride in from the new airport (just opened last week) took an hour and a half, the first part of it very fast on a brand-new six-lane highway. Then we hit city traffic…

I’m staying at the Chancery Pavilion Hotel, which is within easy walking distance from Sun’s office, if you know how to get there. I didn’t, so colleague Sanjeev Bagewadi came to get me – the route is impossible to explain (I mapped it for the benefit of other Sun travellers).

Though much changed since my previous visit in 1980, Bangalore was still delightfully green.
