My trip to India - Part 9

posted Saturday, 21 January 2006
Boeing 777-300/Jubilee
3hrs 40mins to Bangalore.

I have a window seat in the back.  Only two seats.  Me and an older (60+ year old) woman.  I don't think she speaks English.  My lucky travelling day.

...

I like this chronicling my journey.  It's my travelling buddy.  I am tired.  What a long day.

...

During the last leg of the flight, I emptied the stuff from my pockets.  I put the stuff in the magazine compartment in front of me. Later, I opened up the compartment to put the stuff in a plastic bag for the flight crew to throw away.  A crumpled little paper popped out.  I looked closer and it was the paper snow flake the Juj gave me. It is keeping my and the journal company.  It brings a smile each time I touch this note book.  Thank you Lovie.  If you take the time to enjoy the little gifts in life, it gives them meaning.  It gives them a purpose.  The Juj cares about me.  That makes me feel good.  I love you Julia.

Burp.  I heard a burp.  The lady next to me burped.  No reaction.  A few more burps and still no reaction.  None.  She's been talking to a friend in a foreign language.  I hope she doesn't start sucking on a Tiger beer.

...

I had two glasses of water.  I watch two minutes of a movie and I sleep for the remainder of the trip to Bangalore.  We crossed the Bay of Bengal on our way to Bangalore.  I'm not sure where the Bay of Bengal ends and where the Indian Ocean begins.  There are lights below!!!

Hello India .... Hello Bangalore.
