Almost Time to Go Home
It's 7pm in Mumbai and I'm chilling for a few hours at the Kohinoor Hotel prior to going to the airport. We had a crazy day today, leaving Baramati for breakfast at a milk factory, then touring an emu farm with a wireless kiosk for local farmers. We then made our way to Mumbai for the next six hours, stopping at an enormous rest stop for lunch and snacks. One of our Indian colleagues had us over for tea, where we got to me her family and two dogs. Eventually, we reached the Kohinoor, where some people quickly left for the airport, others left for the bar, still others left for the city -- and I spent about 30 minutes cleaning up melted duty-free French chocolate that I'd forgotten about in my computer bag.
Since the hotel has broadband, I'm catching up on email one last time before having a quick drink downstairs, perhaps a shower, then off to the airport. So the next time I'm online will either be during my six-hour layover in Paris or in Boston... -andy
