10.06.06...Ahmedabad at Last!

So, after over 4ohrs of travel I made it here. The plane touched down just before 11pm last night.

I was promptly greeted by Surnish's parents once the transfer bus rolled up to the terminal.

I felt somewhat like a movie star with all of the fuss and men in uniforms there to guide me through.

More amazingly, my luggage was there to greet me moments after arriving.

We are staying at the Police Mess for a few days and visiting in Ahmedabad before returning to there main house in Gandhinagar.

This morning I woke to a lovely overcast sky and the sound of the commuter trains rolling across the bridge over the Sabarmati river. This river, by the way, is the same one that the Gandhi Ashram is set by. So as I stood performing my morning yoga routine along the same banks as Gandhi-ji had in days gone by, I was humbled.

This was only a brief stop to the cyber cafe and I apologize for no snaps at this time.

Wishing you all well!
