We reached banglore at 7.00 am 2 hours after the scheduled time. Our plan was to get down at Majestic station, but we changed our plan as per the last minute discussions with Santhosh and Anivar and we stepped out at Banglore Cantonment.

Santhosh and Syam had accommodation arranged in a hotel by the organizers as they are the speakers for the program. Hiran Suresh and myself went with syam with a plan in mind that we can find some space by evening.

Now on the way to Banglore. Just began our journey from Thrissur in Banglore special train. We were three as decided early. Hiran(an exceptional gnu maniac), Shyam(Creator of Sarika, the speech recognition system and also a speaker too) and myself. We really felt the absence of Pramode sir as he canceled the program due to some personal reason. In the last moment we got another friend to join us, Suresh(who put “Suruma” in the eyes of pango ). Some friends from GECT were also there in the same train but in another compartment.

From the beginning of the journey itself we started our usual discussions(Kathiyadi). Suresh also joined us even though he was in another compartment. We continued our discussions till our co-passengers asked Hiran to keep down his “smooth” voice.

We went to bed by 11, and it was a night without any food!! Hiran blogged about that here.
