ticket to ride

on a bus to mumbai from our sleepy beach village of anjuna.  the last leg of the journey has arrived…we purchased two sleeper-bus tickets not 10 minutes ago from the travel agency ride outside this cyber cafe.  commence the beatles getting stuck in my head.  so we will arrive in bombay on sunday morning. have sunday and monday to hang out with KC, the awesome guy who hosted us our first 3 nights in india…the perfect way to tie up the trip.  tuesday morning we’ll get to the airport at 6am… 3 hours before takeoff because thats what they say to give international flights from mumbai.  i’ll be sure to dump our weapons, drugs, and chopped-up corpses before going through security. THAT IS A JOKE (although eric does have some doggie skeleton bones to bring back. we thought they’d make a pleasant dining room table centerpiece. i told him to keep them in HIS bag).

i cant wait to eat an entire bag of doritos. and drink right from the faucet. oh and seeing my parents might be nice, too, but i’m not sure.  they only gave me life or something.  american streets might seem orderly and empty.  and i KNOW ohio’s quietness is going to creep me out.  new york, i’ve already decided, is going to make me cry tears of joy!! ok now im just babbling.  i wanted to stop by and tell you about the homestretch to mumbai. love
