Happy Friday, everyone! Here are some pictures from breakfast, a walk around the hotel, my office, and dinner with my Manager at a great Indian restaurant in Mombai Powai. Dinner was wonderful!! Tomorrow I am going to the Colaba Causeway. Hope everyone has a great T.G.I.F.
Hello everyone! Thank you for your wonderful emails. I've read all of them and can't wait to respond to you this weekend. It is so great to hear from everyone - Mr. and Mrs. Wall, thank you for your beautiful updates and tips on Mumbai! What perfectly timed information! So excited to write you back with the scoop. I am sending you all a few pictures from breakfast, the ride to work, and some leftover lights from Diwali. I should rename this blog to "Breakfast with Madeleine" or "My Hotel" or "Driving to Work in the Morning". Lol! So thank you for your patience if these are less than exciting posts - I look forward to sharing more. As you can imagine, it's been a busy week of work (but a fun one nonetheless). P.S. If you want to see some really interesting pictures, ask my sisters what they are up to for Halloween this weekend!!!! Love you girls - XO Love, Madeleine
Happy Diwali everyone! I spent most of the holiday sleeping and watching fireworks over Lake Powai. My friends/co-workers and I are having a dinner on Friday to celebrate. The hotel I am at is a fine place to spend the day. I hope everyone that is reading is getting excited for Halloween!! Thank you for visiting and for your support! XOXO Love, Madeleine
Thank you for everyone's kind words! I thought I would post some pictures from my first days in India. To the left, you see the view out of my hotel room of Powai Lake. Then, the photos below show the drive to work in the morning. Our office building and balcony are towards the end of the photos. Since arriving in India I've only had one western meal, everything else has been traditional and I'm getting more of an appreciation for Indian spices! A little tired but doing great!
Thank you for visiting! The word "namaste" has a literal translation of "I see the divine in you". Well, it's easy to see the divine in India, although I've just been here a few hours. Travels to Mumbai went great. Much more to follow, but tonight, a few pictures from my new home. Everyone here is very nice. The picture you see to the left, shows people waiting for their friends and family to arrive at the Mumbai airport. As you exit you get a real "rock star" entrance! Namaste!
Welcome and thank you for stopping by my blog. I created this website to share some stories about my upcoming stay in Mumbai India. When i told my Grandpa about this trip (Hi Gramps!!), he mentioned that he had his laptop handy today and was fielding his e-mails. I thought this would be a fun way to share pictures and stay in touch with him and all of you while I am out of country.
