Wow! We're in Mumbai!...well, let me back up. After my last post, I went down to my gate in the Amsterdam airport where I was asked a bunch of security questions, led through security again (gate specific) and got the most thorough pat down of my life. The young lady doing it was about 5' tall, too, so she had to stand on her tippy toes to rub down my shoulders. She reminded me of you, sis. haha j/k :)
I sat next to a really nice gentleman on the plane who lives in Boston part time for work and has 2 kids, a wife, and his extended family in the Mumbai-area. He gave me the scoop on where to go while we're here. Once Emily and I landed in Mumbai, we hopped a pre-paid taxi (safest way to travel) to the hotel and almost hit some cows in the road on the way! We could have touched them outside our window...so crazy!
We're at a JW Marriott here (thank you, hotel points!), and it is amazing! Once we got here, we had to go through security and get frisked by a woman one more time before coming through the doors. It actually makes me feel safe here, which is always good. :) Now we're off to explore Mumbai before Danielle gets in tonight! Tomorrow the "three white girls" (as some of our Indian friends call us) are going shopping for some Indian clothes for the wedding. Don't worry, eveyone, I'll take lots of pics.
Love you!
