Off to the Motherland

Well, it has been long (and I mean LONG) overdue, but at long last I will indeed be traveling to India.  The picture above was taken of a temple in India when I visited in 2008.  My last visit was in 2010, and I am glad that my relatives abroad were very accomodating given that this trip was very spontaneously planned over the span of last week.

I will be away in various spots in India over the next few weeks.  I plan to be back in Colorado by middle of August to attend to my usual adventures and even see some cool shows at Red Rocks Amphitheatre and in Telluride.

I am looking forward to flying out to India this weekend.  I must say I have a new found admiration for my parents since they have always planned my trips in the past. This is the first time I am going to India by myself and arranging everything all by myself.  It was not too daunting given that I have been to India nine times, but when it comes to going over to Asia, I am just another dumb American traveler.

Should be a nice relaxing change from the pace of my life over these last few months.  I think it will be nice.
