Getting ready for India

So I'm off on Sunday to India, and the 17-million-strong city of Mumbai (Bombay). Getting all the last-minute details ready -- checking out the consulate info, state department info, travel guides through our company, contact numbers, all that good stuff. 

I'll be spending most of my time at the hotel, the office, and a conference center, and any time I'm out it will be with a group, being duly cautious in a foreign country and all that sort of thing. We'll be doing a bit of touring stuff toward the end of the trip, and I'm anticipating that the food should be excellent.

Along with the beer and the G&Ts, of course (got to fight against that malaria, don'tcha know).

Oh, boy -- 10-day forecast: day-time highs in the 90s, night-time lows in the high 70s, all-time humidity in the high wiltings!

Quoth Boulder Dude ...

It's is really going to be odd having your postings coming in 11.5 hours off.

Have a safe and fun trip, hope to see you when you get back. :)

Quoth Mary ...

Your map reminded me that your going to see another sea (Arabian). I'm assuming you haven't seen the Arabian Sea before. Sounds like quite an adventure - be careful and take lots of pictures. I'm off to not-so-exotic Salt Lake City on Wednesday next, but I'll be watching on the Air.

Not seen the Indian Ocean before, either. Lots of "first times" here. :-)
