Off to India on Wednesday.

Not your typical spring break trip but we've never been to East Asia before. 8 days. Delhi, Jaipur and Agra. Lot of flying for a short time but the price was right. Traveling with a friend who is a world historian so it should be very educational.

Is there going to be some serious off-roading during this trip?

Since they make OM616 turbo versions over there, it would not surprise me if you stick one in your suitcase for fun!

I just returned from Thai-land....Bangkok, Changemai,Chaingrai, Burma/Laos..stood at the "Golden Triangle"..saw live poppy plants...cannibus growing freely...I tell ya...Asia/S.E.Asia...is a must see for anyone who has not been here yet. Kerry ...how was immigration handled during your trip? Did you fill out the "white forms" on the airplane? I know you are going to have a fantastic time...Indian food is simply the best....enjoy.
