INDIA MINI - Do 2012

After meeting with Keyser a few months back while in MAA, we were thinking would be fun to organize a small India Do sometime next year. Our numbers here may not be huge, would be good even if ultimately a few manage to meet up somewhere on the sub-continent. Details as of now are as follows:

Date : Sunday January 15th, 2012
City : Delhi
Venue: Lunch at Rodeo
Time : 1 PM

Confirmed:
Quarryking
Keyser
Whizkid

Tentative:
A2A
Rajeevpn
avm2806
aniruddh77
SuperFlyBoy

DEL of course would be ideal, but happy to travel to most Indian cities, as long as they have a SPG or a Taj property.

If we agree on a city and dates (even the month for starters) we can then look for spots...

Sounds like a cool place. So, as of now it's oscillating between Delhi & Goa. Am not very clued in on the whole Goa scene, but would Jan still be typical tourist season out there..??

+1. Weekend of 8th or 15th Jan works better for me too.

I might actually be back in Goa around the 22nd!

Plus remember that the closer you get to the 26th, the more you will see road closures, reherseal security blocks etc especially around the CP / India Gate area...
