The pace quickens! Below are some important reminders and last minute packing considerations...
- Above all, we need every traveller to submit all emergency contact information. Please use the following link to add your contact information to the list. Pema and Scott leave for India on this coming Wednesday, and it is necessary for them to have a complete set of this information with them. Thanks in advance for taking care of this!
- When we board the bus on the 26th, please bring $10.00 dollars cash.... I will collect this from everyone and when we arrive in Chicago, I will turn the collective $pile into rupees, and return the $10.00 equivalent of rupees to each of you. This will give you each a stash of rupees to purchase bottled water, or whatever small items you might want once we land in Delhi! (Imagine! Landing in Delhi!!! )
- As you finalize your packing and preparations, be sure to record all passwords and pin #'s for all credit cards you wish to carry, all bank accounts you may want to access, as well as for any internet accounts you may want to use.
- Be sure to inform your credit card company of your impending trip to India!
- Record all necessary contact numbers for redeeming lost traveler's checks if you plan to use these in India.
- Remember to bring luggage locks (TSA locks are best) for each piece of luggage you plan to check while traveling within India (Chandigarh to Jaipur flight)
- Be sure to pack all pocket knives and leatherman tools in checked luggage! (I have lost two great little Swiss Army knives by being forgetful about this detail!!!)
- Ear plugs and eye masks are a great boon on that long flight from Chicago to Delhi!
OK, Folks! That's it for now! More details may emerge from my travel dazed mind, and if so, you'll be the first to know!
Blessings!
