Hello
Durjay,
I'm back at home and at work. The flight home was quite
an ordeal! First a ten-hour delay in Delhi, then a 20-hour flight to
Toronto, then a second overnight delay in Toronto before my flight to
Chicago. To top it all off, the bus I took from Chicago to Milwaukee got in
an accident on the way home. So I arrived home on Sunday afternoon instead
of Saturday at 8 a.m. as planned. But there was an empty seat next to me on
the Delhi-Toronto flight, so I got plenty of sleep. And I'm happy to be home
safe.
