I wish I had worms...

It's our last day and we decided to be gluttonous, hence the blog title!

In just about 12 hours we will be flying out of Delhi in pursuit of Qatar. I'm curious to see how Qatar Airways measures up. Our flight from Kathmandu to Delhi, on Jet Airways, just a few days ago, was by far the best flight Lori or I have ever been on. Neither of us wanted it to end (definitely a first!). Not only did we have our own touch-screen t.v.s we had the choice of a plethora of music from around the world to listen to (full CDs!), music videos to choose from, over 10 movies, and even more t.v. prporgams...we felt spoiled. We listened to the new Radiohead, Pink Floyd, both Bobs (Marley and Dylan), a little Om Shanti Om (the soundtrack to the Bollywood flick) and the Dixie Chicks. We didn't even have time to check out the t.v. selections because we were both so jazzed to have some jams. I was blasting Mary J Blige as the pilot told the crew to get ready for landing. Amazing how good music feels after not having your Ipod at beck and call for 7 months.

Yeah, 7 months. And we'll be back on home soil by tomorrow afternoon. I hope Qatar Air blows us away because after our 4 hour flight from Delhi we have a 14 hour flight to D.C. Just thinking of it makes me squirm. We haven't written a blog for a while, and uploading took so long last time we didn't get the chance to put up more photos. Hopefully we'll have a chance to soon. I guess this is it. Homeward bound and still trying to process it all...
