Well, I arrived safely in Bangalore. To say the trip was long would be an understatement. My flight out of Atlanta was delayed about an hour which caused me to almost miss my connection in Paris. I arrived at my gate about a minute or so before they were going to close boarding. Fortunately, Paris had some fog earlier in the morning and all flights were delayed. If it wasn’t for the fog delays, I would have missed my flight for sure.
After a 9 1/2 hour flight from Paris to Bangalore, I was greeted by my name on list at the customs counter. It became quickly apparent that even though I made the connecting flight in Paris, my luggage did not. I did pack a one days worth of clothes in my carry-on, which I am currently wearing. I hope that my bags will arrive on the midnight flight this evening.
We arrived into Bangalore Airport at 1:30 AM Bangalore time Sunday. The total flight time with layovers was about 25 hours. We made it to the hotel around 3:00 AM and were told that we had to be downstairs by 6:30 AM to head out for a cultural visit. The goal here was to get us adjusted to the local time zone. I ended up falling asleep around 5:30 AM, so I got an hour of sleep.
A quick breakfast and we were off to the city of Mysore for our first cultural visit.
