Toronto Welcomes Jasvir

We arrived in Toronto with no problems, we had 2 long flights, Auckland to L.A. was eleven hours, and after a 3 hour transit in L.A. we were in for another 5 hours flight to Toronto. We were welcomed officially in the Airport itself, but someone obviously told the airport to expect a celebrity, but as usual they made a typo.



We arrived at our hotel the Westin Harbour Castle and our room has got a fantastic view of the city and the lake. We went for a long walk, to gather the sights, this was at 2 am in the morning though so most places were closed. Thankfully jet-lag hasn't seemed to affect either Jasvir or myself so that is a plus point.





Jasvir is busy polishing his speeches and practicing them with great enthusiasm. There is now less than 5 days to the Inter-District Contest. At times I have to keep pinching myself to make sure that I am not dreaming. It is very exciting. More updates to follow as and when the occur.

Hi Hari and Jasvir,

Great to hear you have landed safely. Have you caught up with the rest of the New Zealand contingent yet?

Good luck for the contest.

Hari, you are doing a fantastic job to keep us informed on Jasvir's progress. Keep it up!

Jasvir, you are already a winner, having won so many friends and well deserved recognition.
I know you are capable of going the entire distance. I'm sure you are savouring this experience of a lifetime!
All the very best for the contests.
