India, Here We Come!

After months of planning, budgeting, and waiting, our trip to India is here!  Our flight leaves this evening, and after a short layover in Bahrain, we will arrive in Delhi tomorrow morning.  Our destinations in India include Delhi, the Corbett Tiger Preserve, and Agra.  We will be sure to tell you all about it and post lots of pictures when we return in a week.  Wish us luck!

And now, back to packing...

Mid-Winter Update

Nothing really new to report…not yet anyway.  It’s amazing how time flies once you get into a routine, even in a foreign country.  It’s hard to believe that we have already been here for almost 5 months.  It’s even harder to believe that December is already over!  First, the weather is so warm that it still feels like October (with the exception of one short snow-day).  Second, nothing that comes along with Christmas to drag the month out.

With December, Darren’s 27th birthday slipped by, and now we are half way through January.  The only thing interesting so far in January is that we saw a shepherd herding his sheep up a footbridge and over the highway – sure wouldn’t see that at home!  January should go out with a bang, however! We have a visitor scheduled to arrive shortly, and after that comes our midwinter break and our trip to India.  We’ll be sure to fill you in after we get back.

With all the people we’ve met, places we’ve been, and events we’ve attended, it’s hard to believe it could all be crammed into so little time.  This is shaping up to be one quick year!
