Back from India - I

Left 85F weather in Mumbai on Sunday and arrived in frigid Detroit at 13F with a foot of snow on ground. Thankfully, my neighbor's kids had cleaned our driveway and I didn't have to pull 6 bags through all that snow.

We didn't want to leave India after this long break and come back, but, finally arriving at our home was very comforting even with all the snow and cold around. During the 6 weeks, Ashwini had forgotten many of her books and toys and was looking at them as if for the first time.

Ashwini was a model child on the airplane. She slept for more than half the duration of flight even while other kids were screaming their lungs out. Other time was spent in drawing and generally socialising with other passangers around her. We were glad to have bought a seat for her. That gave her enough room to lie down with her head in my lap.

It is hard to get back to work after all the fun. Am trying to remember where I left things off before leaving. I was so completely out of it that I had forgotten my password for work PC. Had to call helpdesk to get a new one assigned.

Today is our wedding anniversary. We completed 9 wonderful years together. Hoping to spend at least 90 more.

Here is a photo taken on the day of my brother's wedding (one of the reasons for our India trip) last month.
