Day 1 Arrival in Gurgaon

I got into my hotel at 12:15 AM last night, so I had a pretty lazy day.  The English Education in Afghanistan Conference starts tomorrow, so Arlene Benitez and I worked for a while and then found a place where we could have some wine.  We also found a Starbucks--yea!



We went into a very cool clothing and home goods store.  Beautiful things!


The hotel we're staying is nice--early to bed tonight.
