As many of you know, this is my third trip to India and my second short-term rotation. Back in 2006 I worked in our Hyderabad offices for nine weeks and I will be here this time for six weeks. Once again I flew Lufthansa Business Class which is a really, really nice way to fly! Just as before, the route is through Frankfurt, Germany and then on ...

The day I had been planning for finally arrived. I needed to be at the airport by noon, so I told my parents to pick me up at 11:15. I had everything packed already, so there was nothing to do that morning except recheck my packing list and worry about the thunderstorms going on outside. My parents arrived at 10:45, but that was okay with me. Th...

Our flight landed at 13:10, and the next one was scheduled for 15:10. Two hours, then. Should be plenty of time. Well, by the time you've filled in the bits of the infernal Green Form that you hadn't spotted on the back of it and gone through the lengthy interview you get at customs/immigration, more than a quarter of our time had gone. Thence t...

Well another great day yesterday--started with a 9 am walk to Navy Pier which was wonderful. The weather is just gorgeous!!! Then Greg's two wonderful cousins came and took us out to a awesome unique and chic part of town for a huge omelet and burrito brunch. After searching for matching shirts for today's cubs game we finally gave up and resort...

Here are some descriptions of some of the historical places I visited in Rio. Carioca Aqueduct The aqueduct was built in the middle of the 18th century to bring fresh water from the Carioca river to the population of the city. It is an impressive example of colonial architecture and engineering. Former Roman-style aqueduct converted to a trolley...

A couple of narrators told us that Chicago got its nickname in the roaring twenties from last century. But when I looked it up, I got 3 explanations. Who will tell what is the exact ? We took a 3 day valid ticket for the hop-off hop-on bus, hopped a lot, visited all there was to visit in Chicago, went to the Cheesecake factory, the Signature roo...

Revved up the day with a 14 egg hunt to jack the kids up on chocolate. Hopped on the bus to go to Lincoln Park Zoo. Absolutely excellent...and free! This city is very easy to navigate and the bus system is straight forward. (I'd like to go on the el loop next ime here). Back to Omni then off to the Drake for Tea at 3. From Debevic's 'ruditorium'...

For the second year in a row, my dad and I were off to go to the NCAA Basketball Tournament. March Madness has overtaken us again. We woke up at 3:30AM on Friday and headed out to the airport. After adjusting our clocks, we arrived in Chicago, Illinois a little after 8AM. From there we checked in to the Wyndam Hotel and had lunch. It was bizarr...

Don't clearly remember this, but trip brochure which I still have indicates a stop for cookout breakfast at Crane Creek State Park on shore of Lake Erie. I do recall the next stop at Indiana Dunes State Park on Lake Michigan for a swim and cookout dinner. We then proceeded into downtown Chicago where dinner was on our own. Many went to a Pizzari...
