After 30+ hours of travel, including a 6 hour layover in Chicago, we finally arrived in India. Flights were on time, no luggage was lost, customs went smoothly... thanks for your prayers. We did have an interesting 30 minute drive to the Hotel Palace Heights (www.hotelpalaceheights.com). Drivers in India honk incessantly and pay absolutely no attention to the white lines dividing the roads into traffic lanes.
Uma, our guide from Orphan Outreach who will be helping us minister in the slums this week, met us at the airport, shuttled us to our hotel and treated us to some authentic Indian cuisine. Everything was delicious: lentl, lamb, spinach, chicken, flat bread, and some fried dairy type donut thing for dessert.
We're going to church in the morning and spend the afternoon around the hotel shopping for supplies. It's 1:15am India time as I'm writing this and breakfast is at 9 so I'm going to try to ignore the fact that it's really 12:15pm back at home and try to get some sleep. We'll share more tomorrow after some daytime hours have been spent here.
