It is about 114 days til the "India in the Palm of your hand" group starts exploring and learning in India.
The group of 6 will arrive in Ahmedabad, India on or about the 9th of January ,2011. I know they will be jet lagged and excited all at the same time. The flight arrives at 6:40 am after an exhausting series of flights.
5 of the group will be travelling together from Toronto to Brussels to Mumbai and finally Ahmedabad.
They will be greeted by our friendly driver ,Gaurav and driven to the first hotel adventure -the Arts Reverie.
The group will be joined by our other adventurer who is coming from Ontario via a Mumbai visit with friends and relatives.
While in Ahmedabad we will visit temples, shrines, bazaars,museums and the kite festival day pre-activities. One other activity will be a natural dye workshop from an award winning artist.
Of course restaurants and walking tours will take place as will the all important shopping- not in malls but in stalls!
This a a view from the hotel window. Are they ready? Who knows only time will tell.
Take care of each other
Okay! I think I get it now! First I sent a message to myself. Not really what I wanted to do! I just ordered a camera with a view finder based on discussions at the ticket counter. Yes, I'm REALLY excited!
ReplyDeleteI will definitely be a "follower" of your journey through parts of India. It will be the next best option to being a part of your tour group. Hopefully one day Brent and I will get the opportunity to travel to Inida and you as our guide Russ! Thanks for the explanation about the henna tattoos - very interesting indeed. Cheers, Wendy
