My dear friend Krissy hosted a going away party for me tonight in her home. We ate like gluttons and spoke at decibels that had the neighbourhood dogs yelping. It was awesome to have my friends in one room, sharing their best travel stories (Cappadocian Caveman anyone?) and other words of wisdom. Today's airplane crash in Phuket makes me queasy and tells me to be more cautious about my travel plans (which from this point on, is very flexible to delay a flight if the weather is severe). Tania gave me a very thoughful set of quotes to encourage me...of which the Oprah one is my favourite (of course).
"Breathe. Let Go. And remind yourself that this very moment is the only one you know you have for sure"
IS THERE ANYTHING OPRAH DOESN'T KNOW????
Tomorrow is going to be a busy day of packing and figuring out where I'm staying in Delhi. Crucial item: making sure Claire and I meet up on Oct 3rd. Sounds easy, but I am trying to avoid cow-initiated traffic jams in a mad dash from the train station to the airport. I've got a bunch of feelers out there with friends of friends and family of family friends...I always rely on the kindness of strangers...
82 hours till take off!
