“All journeys have secret destinations of which the traveler is unaware.”

Big news!... We got our visas approved today, so we now have passports, visas, business license of India, work authorization letters... the list goes on and on. After 2 weeks of numerous immunizations & vaccinations, many phone calls to India, making numerous copies of official documents, extensive internet research, and a couple trips to the visa office, we are finally and officially India-bound! Our flights are booked; we're scheduled to depart for India this upcoming Sunday at 8pm. It's a 15 hour flight, and by India time, we are landing Monday evening at 9pm. (*We've placed a set of world clocks at the bottom of our blog so you can see your time versus our time in India.) We have a week before Raja begins work, so we'll use that time to learn our way around the area, buy any necessary items for our new home, and settle in.

Until time to leave for the airport, we'll be packing our suitcases, buying last minute travel necessities, saying good-bye to our friends here, and doing the final preparations for our trip. We have no idea what's waiting for us on the other side of this next journey. We're anxious, excited, nervous, curious... all at the same time. Probably normal for these types of life's little situations, no? :) We (read: I) will of course be posting plenty of photographs from our flight and arrival, so check back soon for those, as well as any final photographs from New York!
