Second trip to India... this time flew KLM through Amsterdam. Still takes a very long time to get to Pune, but I think that route (Houston - Amsterdam - Delhi - Spend the night - Pune) is much better (KLM planes were much nicer than Continental).

As I sit eating my late breakfast Sunday morning I was visited by a large mosquito having its own breakfast on my hand (or is that my hand was its breakfast?). Glad I am taking my anti-malaria pills... ugh (the pills effectiveness is more peace of mind than practical). And to think, I actually considered playing golf today

After flying for however many hours, we stopped in New Delhi for the weekend on my way to Pune, India (business trip). The group decided to do a day trip to the Taj Mahal. The 120 mile (each way) trip took 7 hours to get there and almost as many hours back. I think I saw almost everything in one day including [sadly] someone being struck by a car in front of us and died on the road. This wasn't refreshing pit stop at all to get used to the 12 hour time difference, but I was completely exhausted after the trip (you can see it in my face) . And yes, it was a once in a lifetime trip... I will never do that again.
