Leaving Mumbai and off to Ahmedabaad

Wow! I have 5 followers, better live up to it! I have had a few days "off" staying here with my hostess Priya. The highlight was an indoor swing as large as a sofa in which I kept falling asleep due to my jet lag. She took really good care of me, I ate the most exotic vegetarian dishes and tonight she has cooked some fresh methi (fenugreek) parothas with spinach. I am well recovered and rested for my 7:00 am departure from Mumbai tomorrow morning into the ultra-poor regions beginning with Ahmedabaad then into Bhavnagar, Kutch, Malya Hatina and Bhuj. Our main base will be my friend's house in Porbunder which I hear is near the ocean. So far, I couldn't get any pictures up, will work on it. My laptop did not have internet access as Priya has one of those sticks she uses in her apartment rather than Wi-Fi and of course it did not fit into my laptop just hers which she so generously shared with me all this time. Bon Voyage for now, Nusri.
