bangalore!!

after over 24 hours of traveling -- i am finally here!!
the trip over was long -- but not bad at all.
sleeping on planes just isn't ideal.
but it wasn't too bad.
i slept most of the way from frankfurt to bangalore.
we flew over dubai.
so incredible.
literally in the middle of the desert this golden glow popped up.
i tried to snap a pic from the plane but it doesn't suffice.

we arrived at the hotel at around 3am -- i am about 12 and a half hours ahead of central time.
it is surreal.
the hotel in bangalore that target has set us up with is insane.
today liz, bonnie and laura went around the city.
we did a little shopping.
lexie, i picked you up some bangles.
i hope you like them!
she shop that i was in was off this busy shopping street down in a little store.
the store was running on a generator and it kept turning off, so it would go dark.
it reminded me a lot of canal street & china town in new york.
a lot of small little vendors selling jewelry & such.

katie -- i hope mexico is amazing & don't you worry, st.nicky is having a ton of fun -- he even sipped on a pina colda poolside today :)

tonight i am not sure what we are doing.
we are all still a little drained from the trip over.

i still can't believe i am here.
the smells, the colors, the people, the heat, the TRAFFIC.
it is all starting to sink in.

i am so blessed.

will write more soon!
