Back to India: July 10, 2009

I was super excited to be going back to India but was not looking forward to the long ass flight. I went straight to Dulles from work on the 5A and checked in 5 hours before my flight. Ouch! So I decided to try the massage bar and got a 30 minute seated massage. It was good and took away all the stress of the week and I was in a relaxed mood as I boarded my flight.
Ah! British Airways: bad food, bad movies and the zoo that is Terminal 5 at Heathrow. 7+ hours later I was walking around T5 and killed 4 hours before I boarded the flight to Bangalore. Another 10 hours of bad Zac Efron and Hannah Montana movies later, I got off the plane in namma Bengaluru.
I was greeted by airport workers wearing surgical masks and health officials took my temperature and I was processed through immigration, got my bags, cleared customs and was out of the terminal in 10 minutes. This is the most efficient airport I have seen!

We came home and had some tea and it was off to the Central Tiffin Room for dosas. Mmmmm sooo gooooddd.
