The final hours!

Well we are down to the last eight hours here in India! It is kind of bitter sweet... We have met some great people that took very good care of us!

But... We are still more than ready to go home!

I was actually able to fit everything in my suitcases! Thanks to the laundry staff here at the hotel and their beautiful folding skills!

My bags are totally overweight... A little bit of money can take care of that!

Brett was able to pack a suitcase inside of a suitcase! Pretty impressive!

We will blog again when we hit Chicago in about 24 hours from now!

Last Saturday in India! Guess what we did?

SHOPPING!!!! Of course!

We had the absolutely best driver today!!! Ok... According to me! Brett doesn't like driving here period! So his opinion doesn't really count.

We both pretty much finished all of the shopping we needed to do. No, I really didn't need to do anymore... But I did!

Just to try and explain how much stuff I have purchased... We just had one of the most uncomfortable conversations with one of the employees here at the hotel. He was kind enough to let me know that he had seen everything I had purchased and was wondering how I was going to get it home. He then proceeded to tell me that I should wear some of the Indian clothing I had purchased! I then had to explain to him that my breasts don't really fit (yes, that conversation was a bit awkward!). All the time I was wondering... Why have you been going through what I have purchased? And... It must be bad if they are all talking about how much I have shopped! Lol!

Judy - if Brett brings home all of my dirty clothes ... Will you wash them for me? I am totally kidding! I will send the clean ones with him.

I had the mehndi's on both of my arms redone... And the lady that did them put a bindi on me... Flames and a fake diamond! I think I like it! I just hope that the people I have meetings with tomorrow and Monday like them as well!

We are just two days away from heading home!

Oh ... Judy Bohannon... One more thing I am not supposed to tell you! If you ever get mehndi's on your arms... Brett will carry your bags and PURSE for you while they dry! Lol!

Brett and I have decided that we will start a blog every time we travel now... We should have done this a long time ago! So... Only this chapter is closing soon... There WILL be more to come... Hopefully! Lol!

Have a great day folks! Yes, I said folks!

DW!

Our Lists of Items that must be available upon our return home...

Ok... even if the below are not available... we will just be glad to be home. But if the below is readily available in our pantries, refrigerators and homes, we will be extremely appreciative!

And yes... my list includes cigarettes... For anyone who knows me well... they probably have already thought that Danielle has probably found someone to buy her cigarettes. Well, you are correct! I have found a couple of "suppliers"... However, menthols are not readily available here... so I have been slumming it! I did make it three and a half days ... and then Brett really began fearing for his life, and the lives of 7.1 Billion other people.
