Next Stop: Mumbai
Hi everyone,
Right now I'm at the airport in Paris waiting for my flight to India. Apparently the flight is running at least an hour late because it originated in New York, which is getting hammered by snow. This means I probably won't arrive in Mumbai until after 1am Wednesday - yikes! That's unfortunate because I really want to spend my one free day in Mumbai visiting some telecentres and several colleagues. Hopefully I won't be too much of a zombie to do this.
Had a wonderful evening last night with Grégoire Japiot of the Omidyar Network and his sister at her apartment near the Eiffel Tower. Grégoire brought several wines from Burgundy, including a tasty Chablis and two wonderful Pinot Noirs. He also brought a sampling of local cheeses to pair with the wines. We had a marvelous time. When I'm on my flight, I will write more about my last day in Paris, which included visits to the Louvre and the Cluny Museum of the Middle Ages. For now, though, I'm paying through the nose for wi-fi access, so I need to focus on email rather than writing my blog. Stay tuned... -andy
