Colloquium Web Designing Team Picnic -> Hinjewadi

Well, my todays post is all about the 'HINJEWADI TOUR' that we (Colloq web team) went on 3rd october , 2009. It was awesome, unlike other outings, it was amidst some of the great I.T. bigwigs like IBM,TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Tech mahindra and many more.
We completed our website work on 2nd October (Happy gandhi Jayanti) and that night four of us (me, Amit, Sanchit and Param) decided to chill out. This time rather than going for places like hilltop or LBT we thought of making it altogether different and decided to go to Hinjewadi the I.T. Hub in Pune which was 25kms from our place. We decided to leave at 5 30 in the morning (this was adventure too).
We woke up at 5 30 as scheduled (man!! we woke up at 5 30) and six of us marched to hinjewadi we four platina and unicorn. Really driving on NH-4 was so much fun on a sunday morning. Sanchit had bought few mentos (so that dimaj ki batti jale). Having fun we were heading towards our destination. Midway we saw a truck had over-turned and then there was traffic jam. But we were not caught in it there was already a diversion made. Then driving driving ................. and sanchits PJ's atlast we reached HINJEWADI. Man!! it was awesome.
It started with KPIT Cummins, (not the cummins girls college) then there was Mindtree, I think it is KPIT's product. The kach ki buildings amused me. I felt like I was a host on Travel and Living show and eager to tell you'll my experience. We took first stop at Wipro where there were two ways. Wipro covered a large areahaving many short heighted buildings cream coloured.We clicked out some pictures in eshtyle.Then again taking a step forward we headed left from Wipro and then were, TCS and the Tech Mahindra. Tech Mahindra campus was large and i liked the Architecture. We did not have any permissions to go into the companies so the only alternative was to see them from out-side :( Further there was a fine stretch of road with a dead end. Sanchit and Param overjoyed. Because now they take a ride on the bike. They had some rounds of bike riding. I think they must have enjoyed.
Back on the way we then again went till Wipro. We were yet to see the shaan of Hinjewadi INFY. N then we were in front of the huge ' INFOSYS ' gate. I couldn't believe what i saw. I was like a Mushroom structure. It was simply great. The large stretch of buildings, glass domes were eye-catching.Further we saw IBM then, some samll IT companies and were back to highway.
Returning back with some nice memories of Hinjewadi. Everyone was feeling a little sleepy because we had woke up at 5 30 can you believe that 5 30. Back to PICT pohevala.
Had nice two plates of pohe some bhaji and backe to Amit's House. Oh !! How could I forget Sanchit bought a DNA.
Unlike any other outing in Pune this was something really special. The IT hub was appealing and it was really inspiring.
