Bangalore - When I arrived, there was the Hotel taxi waiting for me and we left the airport @ 10:22pm but in Singapore it is already 12:52am (that is 2.5 hrs behind). There are many touts for illegal taxi - AVOID at all costs. There are authorized taxis that will bring you to your destination otherwise get the Hotel to fetch you.
On the plane, I finally watch the movie RED (Retired and Extremely Dangerous). Starring old folks in an action movie. Solid casts - more laughable than action but I still enjoyed it.
As I am still wide awake. I decided to watch another movie - CONVICTION. This is a true story of a sister that puts herself through Law School to get her innocent brother out of prison. She succeeded after 20 years.
From the airport, it was a straight road with cars honking at one another. My driver was driving in and out at around 80km/hr and at times 110km/hr. He was driving a Chevy of a model which I do not recognize. In Bangalore, hailing a taxi from the main road can be rare and it is advisable to book a taxi.
After I checked into Le Meridien Hotel, and much settled in and watching a movie on my notebook. I got a shocked when sometime open my door but fortunately I had the latched on. Looking through the eye hole, it was a Chinese looking lady with a trolley bag - I complaint to the front desk. This was the first time it happended to me.
Le Meridien Hotel apologized and gave me a Red Wine as a token of apology.
