Welcome Nana and Grandpa

We know that many readers are eager to know that Nana and Grandpa arrived safely in Chennai in the wee hours of January 7th. They had an uneventful flight, and amazingly landed on time at 1:00 am and made it through customs and picked up their bags within forty minutes. They were met by Prabhu - we decided that Ashwin and Priya should skip the trip to the airport so that they would not sleep through school on Wednesday, but they got up to greet their grandparents who were here by 2:15 handing out delicious homemade Christmas cookies made by Nana and hand carried from Mpls/StPaul in Grandpa's carry on bag! We're all thrilled to have them here (and we're all enjoying the cookies)!

Now, a couple of days to acclimate, and then off to Delhi on Friday. We'll be sightseeing in Dehli, then to Agra and Jaipur. Following that, back down south to the state of Kerala, where we will first be in the city of Cochin, then on the backwaters and a bird sanctuary. We wont be posting while we travel, so look for another update in a couple of weeks. Cheers!
