Vaishno Devi

yesterday was really painful bc we did not have internet at work which meant i had to translate reports all day from Indian english to american english without email breaks. plus i was not feeling good. i only have 2 weeks left of work and the end is in sight!

after work i think pappu, santosh and i are going to go on a pilgrimage to Sri Mata Vaishno Devi Ji. we will take a train to Jammu, then bus to Katra, and from there we begin the 13 km trek to the shrine. Up to 25,000 per day make this trip, but it should be only like 18,000 when we go.

last night karthik, kelley and i went to Mocha's. fyi, be prepared to fight when you need to order off the menu in India. this might only apply to franchises, but there is ZERO managerial/waiter discretion.

i'm really into this panjabi hip-hop bhangra mix stuff these days. it is going to drive guddu crazy. speaking of guddu, tomorrow is our 3rd anniversary (temple) and the day after is the court anniversary.

there are 2 news stories of interest. there was a labor riot in a honda factory in a delhi suburb that is quite sketchy-- on the protestors and police's parts. second, a massive amount of rain has dropped on mumbai. over a foot in 24 hours! did this make the US news?

yes, the stories i've heard about US Embassy employees down there being stuck on the road for hours and hours makes Tropical Storm Gaston sound so tame!

No rain in Delhi :( only humidity
