The second week is just about gone and so much happened, I hope I remember it all!
We went to have a look at our shortlisted apartment list last week and decided on an apartment. We went with the older but more settled place, it is more quiet and very well maintained and looked after. The apartment itself is not bad, it is a 3 bedroom/bathroom place with A/C's in all the rooms and living areas. There is 100% power backup and the community has got some fun stuff. We will be signing the rental contract today.
We got our car and driver on Thursday which we will be using for the rest of the year, well hopefully. We have a slight disagreement with the rental company, they promised us on Wednesday that we will be receiving a NEW CAR as per what we will be paying for according to the contract. Well, it was dented and scratched pretty well with well over 32000km's on the Odo meter! Apparently they don't have new cars available but we will get the youngest vehicle this week sometime. The driver himself is not bad, he took me around town on Thursday and Friday showing me around.
We had dinner at a great restaurant on Friday night with an American couple, it's great making friends so quick and it helps getting tips from the people that's been through it all already.
Saturday was a busy day, we had lunch at the Chocolate room with a friend and went furniture and appliance shopping for the rest of the day. We ended up buying everything except for the dining room table. That will be done in the next week or so. Saturday evening we went to the News Cafe for dinner, I had a Bunny Chow and Teresa had Alfredo.
Sunday was a very nice and relaxing day, a South African that's been here for about 2 1/2 already came to visit us and we had a nice afternoon with him. That was that for Sunday, the rest of the day I watched Sri Lanka whipping Australia in cricket and to my shock Pakistan beating South Africa!!!! :(
At least the SHARKS made me proud by handing the WP a good old WHIP @SS on Saturday with the Currie Cup Final. (local rugby championship final)
Below will be a couple of links to some video's I took while being shown parts of Hyderabad.
ENJOY!!
