Remind me never to follow Jeremy again. - As Veer warned the stop was very quick and we must get off the train quickly - we all line up with our bags attached Jeremy first - then me... the train was still moving but at a reasonably slow pace... Jeremy lept... and so did I - But as someone yelled just before my foot hit the ground "Watch out - it's slippery' - I got caught in the slow motion movements of my mind - Run fast when getting off...or watch your footing to not slip.. - It was then things sped up again, I took about 5 or six steps and the next thing I knew my HEAVY camera bag was thorowing me forward and... down I went - I don't know how many rolls I took - But I know it was fun and it was a good laugh for everyone. - No worries - It was more funny than anything.

So that was leaving the train - but getting there was a whole other stroy. - As we had spent the day out and about it began raining.. and raning and it rained most of the night (actually I think it has been raining ever since). After dinner we left the for the train station around 9:30 pm for and 11:00 overnight train ride - upon getting there, we learned the train was running about 4 hours behind - So we got to spend an enjoyable night at the hotel de Mumbai train station. Veer took us girls and all the luggage to a 'Ladies Waiting room' - He said it would be safest there and for our luggage. We must all stay together and physically be attached to the luggage - we could not go to sleep - we had to stay alert for both us and the luggage sake. The guys stayed out in the 'general boarding area' it was not pretty there - We spent the first hour playing cards and then Allison slept, Kelly charged her ipod, Tia read and I wrote in my journal. - Which if I was smart, I would use it when writing here - but never seem to have it with me when writing here. - At any rate, we were fortunate, the train came in earlier than we expected and as I wrote my last line (which commented that we will leave when God is ready for us to), up in the window shows Cliff and Veer - The train was about here and we were ready to leave.

God's timing is always perfect - We just have to learn that... and learn that... and learn that.

Most of you know, I prefer to share my thoughts through pictures - vs words - so without being able to share my pictures has been hard for me - but soon I will. - So yes Cliff, I do have plenty of pics, I brought an extra battery and a little bit more memory - next time we can share - thanks for the thoughts.

God is Good - and I love you guys - Keep praying, the fun is just beginning.
