After 3 long weeks , I will be returning home .. sweet home !!
Had a wonderful trip I must say !!! Successfully upgraded the PeopleSoft for WestWood Online Colleges and I am really very happy about it. All the sinking stomachs , cold feet were put to rest. It has been a wonderful experience technology wise.
Alta staff really to wonderful care of us all through those final upgrade 4 days.. breakfast , lunch , dinner along with their technical inputs. They stacked up snacks and juices to keep us up all energized. Thanks to Patrick , Heidi, Sockie. All that definately made us extremely comfortable.
As always has been a wonderful experience working with Sanket.
Now am looking forward to the database migration project. That too is going to be a different / unique experience.
So , with just one day in hand i.e. tomorrow , I hope to catch up with some site seeing in and around Denver. Downtown and the mountain ride.

Reached Denver , Co
Almost been a year since my last visit to US of A. After visiting most of the software hubs (Silicon valley, New York, chicago , Atlanta) I was very curious about coming over to Denver , Colorado. Was lucky to be coming in a summer, somehow never liked the snow.
As my flight was descending at the denver airport , the view from the top was quite different. No lush greens or buildings. Most of the other places I visited before , Chicago being the best, where u see Sears tower, navy pier.
But Mountain view I get from my hotel room, it's really beautiful..and relaxing.. how I wish I get a chance to do a little bit trekking.
I am booked at La Quinta , something similar to Candlewood. Had to wait for almost an hour for the Boulder Super Shuttle to take me to LaQuinta. The only advantage of putting up in la Quinta , westwood online building is just adjacent.
Ah! that reminds me .... we going live from that 10th. My second peoplesoft upgrade project going live, another feather. But two totally different experiences and totally newteachings.. so I have rolled up my sleeves.. have the confidence and the knowledge and preparedness for uncertainties.
Coming back ..had a difficult task to keeping myself awake, so went shopping at target , watched bruce willis's DIE HARD .. HANS episode...and god know when I hit the pillow, at 1.30 am my sleep broke by scream ...it was the TV.. i had dozed off watching die hard!some shopping at TARGET grocerry ..
I was happy I was able to come on saturday ... today i am going to relax all day.... tomorrow onwards it's all work work and work ..
I have brought a few brochures from the hotel lobby.. hoping I get a chance to see this beautiful place.
