Preparing for my first trip to India

I get to fly to India next month for a couple of weeks of meetings. I haven’t done any international travel for a few years now, so I am looking forward to it. I don’t like to be away from my family too long, but it is only 2 weeks. As is typical with me when I travel for work, I probably won’t get much sightseeing done, but I do look forward to the food.

In preparation for the trip, I just got a bunch of vaccinations, because apparently, there are a few hundred ways to die from the environment there…<grin>

I haven’t ever had to get vaccinated before traveling, because I guess I’ve only been to boring places. My wife is mad because I am once again going somewhere without her, though she was more upset about my prior trips to England and Paris. One of these days, we will be able to afford to take the whole family on some international trips.

This will be my first flight on Emirates Air, and I get to have a layover in Dubai. I wish I could spend more than 2 hours there, but at least I will get to say I’ve been. I will post pictures and details once I actually get there, so keep watching for more updates.

Oh, and since I will be traveling to a few places I have never been before, and since my phone will now work in those places, I decided to start playing Pokemon Go again. Maybe I will catch something unique to trade with my friends.
