2009: Jan 4th: Last day in New Delhi we had lunch with OP Ji and Vina Ji both, it was Sunday. Rest of the day was mostly spent packing and stressing. Our flight was at 6:00 PM. We left for the airport at 4:15. Should have left by 3:00 PM. We barely cleared security in time. Since my shaving kit was in the carryon I lost my beard scissors at security. Darn it.
Bhubaneswar had a very light fog. You could only see it by distant airport tarmac lights. After getting the luggage we headed out to see Panda Nana waiting for us. My wife was impressed Nana came himself. The driver, Nilu, is new to us. Sigh, a new training period, I hate breaking in new drivers. The hotel is undergoing some major renovations. Lobby is torn all to hell, but they had a room ready for us. Not our usual room, but I like it better. This room has marble floors instead of moldy carpet. The AC works good too. Just wish for a fridge like the Delhi hotel rooms have. We recovered our hotplate from last trip. We had left it with Bichi. 'Almost' all the comforts of home. |
