not much to report so far... i'm in a lounge in the hong kong airport.
just wolfed down a bowl of congee, hong kong's version of cream of wheat (rice?) with peanuts and pickled vegetable.
arrived 7:00 tuesday morning (crossed the date line) after a 14 3/4 hr flight which left sfo sunday night around 12 midnight. i had a middle seat, the plane was packed. not much sleep, but i did zone in and out for a while with bollywood music piped in my ears.
i have a 7 1/2 hr layover, so will grab a shower before exploring another airport in a city i can't count as visiting (along w/ frankfurt, johannesburg, and seoul). my next flight stops in bangkok before getting to mumbai for a total of 8 more hrs. should arrive 8pm local time, maybe getting to hotel at 10.
i'll have a few days to explore mumbai before starting work. i should have more interesting news next time i write.
i think i'll check out the swanky bar at the taj hotel, take a ferry to elephanta island and check out the caves, see one of the nearby hindu temples, cruise the bazaars, maybe buy some more presentable attire.
maybe sleep....
