"I'm leaving, on a jet plane. Don't know if I'll be back again..."
It is (oops) now 12:01 so I guess it is afternoon. I am sending in my hours for the last two weeks so I can get paid.
Now that that is done I will start packing. After that I will go downstairs and have lunch.
We are supposed to leave for the airport at 3:00 this afternoon. The plane isn't until 5:20 and the airport is only 15 minutes away. We get in to Mumbai around 7:00 something and the hotel is supposed to have a driver there to pick us up.
The J.W. Marriott is a verrrry nice hotel. Brian says it is right on the beach.
:)
It will be nice to visit a new city. They say Mumbai is not as developed as Hyderabad, and to be ready.
Brian and I went to a big museum yesterday. It was interesting, but after living in ThemePark World you get pretty jaded.
I got $100 in Indian Rupees from the ATM yesterday, courtesy of my Fireman's Fund credit union card, so I am set for an adventure.
Sunny day out. Today is "Holi" a special day for Hindus. People toss colored powder on your friends and family, and squirt you with colored water from squirt guns. There is a special one-day city law against doing it to passersby and people you don't know, but the hotel recommended we don't go for a walk today and only to take a hotel car if we need to go out.

Guess it's a good thing I'm not going jogging?
:)
I will miss Hyderabad. It is busy and the traffic is crazy, but it grows on you. How nice it is at home to have a car, and the freedom to drive anywhere at any time.
