Hey All-

Unfortunately, my email from the second flight didn’t send, so you get a two for one deal! That’s right this email contains both rants/raves about the flight from Frankfurt to Mumbai and my Mumbai experience as of 4/8 – 6:00pm!

Let’s start with the whole I need a ‘cell phone’ in India concept.. (since this is what is currently on my mind) I knew I would need a phone, but I didn’t realize how dependent you get with it and NO I don’t mean the kind where I like to just talk to people.. I’m talking about using a cell phone as a means of meeting people and more importantly informing your driver of your whereabouts so he can find you in the onslaught of the bajallion other brown people in india. Then one must ask the question.. how did we do it before? Since I didn’t have a cell phone today, I decided not to meet up with some friends (yes that could have been a stupid mistake.. but I just didn’t want to deal with the idea of going to a place.. and then have to frantically look for the person until we met.. I can say.. that even with having a cell phone.. meeting up with people isn’t ideal.. so now add in the fact that I’m in india, going to a place I don’t even know how to get to, and then expecting to meet a person.. I’m going to wait for my cell phone!)

Holla-

lets sync up with where I left out:

For those that don’t know, I am currently in schedule to be in Mumbai: 4/8-4/27 for work (If you want anything, let me know! I have already printed out a list of peoples’ bio-data)

I boarded the flight from sfo to frankfurt at 1.55pm.. Everything was fine and dandy.. until of course I sit down.. I sit next to a heavy-set individual that we will call MOTOOO.. which makes moving around very uncomfortable.. I’m pretty much playing fencing every couple of minutes with my elbow against his.... and of course..every now and then.. I slip and find myself crammed against the wall of the plane.. window seats!

I just finished uploading the pics from this weekend. MIAMI ROCKED! What can I say!

Sooo... I'm recooperating from my lil crazy weekend in Las Vegas...

[Friday]
I change my flight to a direct flight from Denver to Las Vegas... I get in..the d-factor and my cousin, who's visiting from London, was craving these garlic knots? yah..that's what I was thinking when she told that to me... we get to this pizza joint..which has these garlic knots..and sicilian stylzed pizza [supposedly like chicago deep dish..at least thats what the waitress says] we get the garlic knots and the sicillian pizza..both were quite disapointing..the so-called sicillian pizza looked like dominoes 'big-foot' pizza. We leave the pizza joint..and get to d's house. Hang out for a while..say the hello's and change it up..getting ready for the night. We decide to go to Body English, which is a club in Hard Rock Cafe. It isn't as big as Rain, but it has a good crowd. I work the door as usual..and get us all in promptly..cuz that's how I ROLL! Friday night ends with some eventful meetings..we meet this crazy random guy named Robert..who's this retired investor..and lets just say..i didn't believe half of the things he was saying....we then met the normal vegas crazy people..and ended the night at ihop..with some bomb crepes!
