Today was our last day in Pune! We woke up early again so the other two could go to yoga and me to go for a swim. I couldn’t really do another yoga routine again! The swim was nice, however – the water is really cold, and I’ll think Kinsman has warm water when I get back!
It was a rather uneventful morning, despite people leaving all over the place. We had a session about the various jobs and positions available at the different world centres, as well as this session of laughter yoga. The latter didn’t go so well, because the guy was much more concerned with making a movie of his session rather than teaching us about laughter yoga! And...it was hot...and there were ants...and all that good stuff!! It was fine, I suppose, but nothing too spectacular.
The staff were obviously done with catering to us, because they all kind of vanished after lunch when a few of us were still kicking around waiting to leave. There were no huge farewells or anything. We hopped in two rickshaws and headed for the airport.
The airport was an interesting experience. It was attached to the military base and so the security was probably more interesting than other domestic Indian airports. We had several various security points for both checked baggage and hand baggage. They even zip-tied our checked baggage upon entering the airport so we could add anything to it! Other than those few differences, it was pretty much a standard airport with nothing too weird or different. Some things never change, really.
We had an uneventful flight and arrived in Delhi around 8:30pm. A guy from Perfect Travels was at the baggage claim waiting for us and everything, which was pretty impressive! He spoke English fluently, which was also quite reassuring and comforting.
It was a short ride to the hotel where we met Scott (Caroline’s significant other) and signed into our rooms. It is a beautiful home where we are staying. Beautiful, castle-like lobby and dining room area and the rooms are plain but clean. I certainly have no complaints!!!
Mom and dad are staying at a fancy hotel – they wanted to pay more for their tour than the rest of us did...so we will see them tomorrow and see their location and amenities! Should be interesting.
