I've been watching since Thursday, and Margie still hasn't posted about her wonderful new opportunities at work.
Most of you have probably heard about Brandon's month-long trip to Mumbai (formerly Bombay), India. We haven't heard too many details, like when do you leave, will you be gone for your birthday, when do you get back, will you be able to be in contact with us, etc, etc.
But did you know Margie gets to be a world traveler too? After she gets back from Nora's blessing in Utah, she will also fly to Mumbai, then she'll be heading to Beijing, to Las Vegas, to Washington DC and to London. You guys sure lead an adventurous life.
Be sure to post foreign pictures for people like me who will probably never get to see all those exotic places.

Didn't Teressa have a job earlier with Remington, and they used to fly her all over? I remember her going to Madrid, Spain, and the Antilles, and all over. You're right, Stacey, where do they get those wonderful jobs where they get to travel all over? And I just don't think it's all about college either. I went to college, and I don't travel abroad. I wonder if there would be a math conference somewhere that I could attend?

I am very excited to see this part of the world. I have worked side-by-side with Indian team members for the past 10 years so it will be interesting to see where they work/live. Feedback I have received from other team members that have been say it is unlike the US and other "first world" nations, where the poor are cordoned off from the rich. In Mumbai and other parts of India, (which is considered 3rd world) the wealthy and impoverished live in much of the city flank by flank, with patched-together shanties propped up next to gleaming apartment towers and housemaids returning to their tarpaulin shacks just feet away.
The REALLY cool news is that Margie and I will be in Mumbai around the same time. I have a trip planned to Bangalore the same day Margie arrives but if I can change it, she and I will be spending her birthday together in Mumbai which would be awesome!
