big cities

PO is on his way to Mumbai, India (formerly Bombay until 1995) as we speak. He flew from CVG to Newark today, and is now sitting on a loooong flight that will take him directly to Mumbai, the largest city in the world. We visited Shanghai in college, now the 8th largest city in the world with a population of 9.8 million. WHEW. That was a mass of humanity - I cannot fathom Mumbai. (random: after browsing the list, I have been to 10 the of world's 50 most populous cities! yay world trip!)

I am sad that Paul is gone, but excited for all he gets to experience. He is going with 5 others from our church where he is the reach-out director for students. They will be checking out some of the work International Justice Mission is doing in the city, and learning how we could become involved. Hopefully he will get the chance to email and update his blog before he returns next Monday.

In the meantime I will keep watching Indian movies. I saw Monsoon Wedding tonight (incredible) - and Bride and Prejudice (hilarious) on Friday. We also watched Salaam Bombay (super sad).
