India...

...has better get ready for us to get out of jet lag. We are going to hit the ground running, as soon as we can adjust to the time! We have repeated another historical fact today, last done one year ago: 6 hour napping in the middle of the day. We had a very productive morning...eating, jogging, getting set up online, shopping on campus, skyping, eating again...and then we both couldn't keep our heads up anymore, so we laid down for a short nap, lying to ourselves really, since we knew we'd sleep for ages. The doorbell rang at 10:30 pm and woke us up (it was our ISB buddy, Sartaj, wanting to greet us). We've officially slept through dinner, but that's okay, because we ate twice already today, and the food was delicious! I'm not going to drop any weight due to lack of interest in the local cuisine. At least initially...I suppose I could grow tired of it after a little while. But today was delightful...Indian food twice in one day, with no real desire to stuff myself because I know there's going to be more tomorrow!

The weather is warm but we don't need the a/c on yet in our room. The ceiling fans are a real nice addition, problem is they look they were just added. There are big holes around the ceiling where they cut the hole for the electrical box. Hmmm...the real question is how long they've been left with the big gaping holes.

If you haven't skyped us yet, please try! Our parents know this, but we've got a great new laptop (MacBook) with a built in video camera. I guess the quality is pretty impressive. Geo and I are online now, using jazzygeo as our skype name. We'd love to chat with you! Plus you can leave us voice mail if we're not around.

We'll try for a more productive day tomorrow. We need to get ourselves "official" here. That means we need IDs, a student number, class schedules and the like. Then I can use the gym and the pool, both look fantastic, but it's all without a/c, so that means I probably need to go early.

Hope to hear from you soon!

So much news! It's amazing how much you've already gotten done. Even with jet lag, you are productive! I'm in awe!
Love your postings. You're spoiling us. But, now I'VE got to unpack...remember, we've been in our new place 3 weeks, but today is my first day alone! See ya! Love, MomT
