It all begins

Believe it or not, but this great adventure begins tomorrow. Kind of.
The first leg of my trip take me to Denver (via Omaha to visit my uncle) for my cousins wedding. As hard as it may be for me to keep myself from totally checking out during the wedding, which is on the 4th, I'm actually really looking forward to it. Seeing that side of the family again will be wonderful, plus it will provide a good warm-up for the next 15 weeks.
Bright and early that next morning, 6am to be exact, I take a flight to Chicago. I have a couple hour lay-over in Chicago where I will meet up with Eric and Midori, the two other student teachers who will be flying down from Minneapolis. At 2:45 we all board an Air India flight for a marathon, 15 hour journey directly to Delhi.
As much fun as that flight will be, The real rude awakening will be the 14 hour lay-over we have in Delhi waiting for flight to Coimbatore. We have booked a hotel, which will at least give us a bed to sleep in, but with the time change, and a 7am flight the next morning, I don't expect any of us to get much rest.
At 7am the next morning we fly south to Coimbatore, with one mystery stop on along the way. We've been promised a cab which will meet us at the airport and drive us all the way up the ghat road to Kodaikanal.
All in all, this will prove to be one heck of a journey, which should lead to one heck of a 3 months.

Here's grand adventures,
