Far away from Columbia County, New York this week in Bangalore India. 8,600 miles to be exact and 10.5 hours difference in terms of time zone. Watching the Indianapolis/New England Championship game live at 8am to give you an idea of the time difference
This picture attempts to juxtopose the old with the new in India. A recent built office building overshadowing what I characterize as a shanty-town. Not quite a shanty-town , I only see one family living in the vacant lot . A lot of anarchronisms such as this exist in India which is modernizing at a furious pace.
