First time Flying

First time flying and I flew to the other side of the world! I traveled to Hong Kong, Thailand, now here in India, next will be Sri Lanka. I Loved flying over the pacific, watching the sunrise, seeing every type of cloud, and seeing ships from my window seat voyaging the seas below me! Interacting with many cultures different than my own! The neat thing about Delhi is that there are so many people from different parts of India. It is an adventure that I have been enjoying, although there are challenges for sure; hot weather, swimming in sweat, no AC, electricity goes out from time to time, extreme poverty, different smells, but there is humor in some, not all, of the challenges. Today at lunch, our group managed to order four plates of chicken!!! We meant to order one "Full" plate, which has about ten peices of chicken on it, but their ears heard "four" plates. I am sure there will be more funny stories like this one about miscommunication as the days unfold over the next two weeks!
