After the wild success of other people's blogs (Niti), I decided that I should make one of my own and tell people about my travels in India and put up some pictures and write a little bit. I also want to show my friends who haven't been to India that it is not just the setting for "Slumdog Millionaire", but much much more.
India Trip: July 10th to August 11th
So, Mama Jain is already in India. She's been there for 2 weeks. My sister, dad, and I are leaving today. I am flying to Newark, and then taking a 14 hour flight to New Delhi. I have never taken this long of a flight before- usually we fly to London or Amsterdam or Frankfurt and then to Delhi- but many people have told me that the direct is much easier.
This is my plan for the 14 hour flight.
Right before flight: Take a solid dose of Nyquil.
