Travels

Got back from Greece last weekend. The trip was related to a conference. It was an excellent trip. We left from home on April 8, and drove to Washington's Dulles airport. Stayed at a Fairfield Inn near the airport and it was pretty convenient because it lets you park the car there. That night ordered in some food and we made sure we got a good night's sleep. Then on April 9, which was Good Friday, took the 7:55 am flight on BA from Dulles to London Heathrow. The crossing was pleasant and the plane was pretty empty. We could all watch movies. It was a 767 and there was no power outlet but the trusted computer and the DVD player with the additional battery worked fine. Bebo mostly watched "koi Mil Gaya" and I watched "Love and Death." Reached Heathow on time. The hotel had sent a taxi (Abdul from Pakistan was the driver) and we talked about cricket and war on the way to the hotel. Stayed in our good old Marriott and had a dinner of chicken achari which was really good. Bebo had a "crabbie pattie" or a hamburger. Went to sleep early to fight the jet lag.
