Am having deja-vu. I'm sitting in the Maple Leaf lounge at the same table that I was sitting at the first time I posted on here. And am heading back to the same place. After much moaning and griping on my part, I'm on my way to India again for another month. Oddly enough, now that it's officially official, I'm looking forward to the trip again. It's not quite the trip I expected. My original itinerary had me spending a day in Zurich that I had been really looking forward to, but things change, my trip was delayed, and I'm now flying over London and then on to Mumbai. Zurich will have to wait for another day.
I'm looking forward to a few places that I didn't get to the last time. There is a market called Crawford Market that's apparently massive and interesting and if I can talk someone into joining me, I'd like to take one of the colourful, too full ferries to Elephanta Island. More on those places when I get there. Oh, and I suppose I'll do some work, too. It's going to be very busy and I don't think I'll quite have the same amount of time to poke about as I did in August.
I was crowing earlier about getting a month's worth of clothes packed in a single suitcase but I've already realized that I've forgotten an umbrella (although that is just a reason to get a new one), and my guidebook. I really hope that is it. I was extra methodical, but I'm still worried.
I'm interested to see how the flight to Mumbai is. I'm travelling on an Indian carrier called Jet Airways. A friend of mine who travels quite a bit has told me that they have terrific service. I'm looking forward to it. Maybe paneer (one of my favourite Indian things) will be on the menu in some fashion.
Next post will probably be from Heathrow, I've got a bit of a wait there.
