1st day in Bangalore, Silicon Valley of India part 1

On my way to Intel SRR1. Pictures are clipped due to software. Not because of me take such a lousy angle. You can see the yellow "taxi" called Auto in the picture. No doors, so make sure you hold tightly.

Various snaps in Bangalore. From Auto trying to climb up the slope till some traders on the road side. There are many coconuts and sugar cane selling along the way. Expect traffic jams if you drive or go out of hotel.

Intel SRR1 and SRR2. There is a water fountain, nicely done landscape. Better than those in MY. Inside Intel is like heaven, once outside the Intel gate, like another world.

Intel shuttle bus. Goes to other plant as well as bring employees back to home. See how many shuttle they have? Even engineer takes these kind of bus home. That's is also part of the reason why they go back on time. But unfortunately those I knew need to continue working from home after work. By the way, those bus are air-condless...they have fans and yet the fans were OFF.

My trip is okay. Not as great time as I go US. Cause here no transport for me to go out. All by taxi.

I just felt funny cause why no air-cond and even there is fans but not switched on. Not really hot cause open windows and smelling smokes.
