I'm here!

After all the rushing and wondering, I'm finally here safe and sound.  After planning to have a 5 hour lay over in Newark, I ended up having only 15 min to spare before they plane doors were closed.  It all worked out.  


The 14.5 hour flight was quite comfortable (thanks to the extra leg room of the bulk head).  I ate dinner, watched a movie with a glass of wine and then slept 6 hours straight!! (due to ambien and exhaustion).  Arriving in Delhi was easy and my hotel driver was there waiting for me with a smile (thank God).  


So...so far, so good!!!  It's 105 outside (dry heat!)  I'm so happy to be back in India.  The crazy traffic, nicest people, interesting outfits, auto rickshaws, overflowing buses...  haven't seen a cow yet!


Now a shower and off to bed.    I have a wake up call at 6:30 back to Delhi airport at 7:15 for 9:35 flight.  I look forward to connecting with Michael and settling into Jodphur


Thanks again for your interest.  Happy weekend to you!
