I went to India to find the bride for my son

2013-09-27

The flight to India was uneventful except for my bad Karma, I tried two seats and the movies were not working (or operator error) but I was too tired to figure out. So, I just vegetated and slept.

Against all odds, the checked in luggage was there and I came out very quickly. I used a porter (paid him a dollar and he was sooo happy)  and used his cell phone to call my nephew waiting outside.  Anuj drove me home at 5am and my brother and sister in law were waiting.  It is so nice to come all the across the world, find a loving home, warm ginger tea and just unload dirty laundry of two weeks of travel :)

Lots of talks and some more talks later we picked up the grand kids (my grand nephews and niece) from the local private school where Theresa was giving a seminar to 10 high schools about the college admissions in USA. Of course, we found out about this only after driving for 2 hours all the way across the town to pick her up from the Taj hotel. If we had just read her itinerary  before hand, we would have known that she was there in the neighbor hood and saved ourselves and her four hours of driving time. But, engineers do not read instructions or anything written.
