SAFE!!!

After a pretty solid straight 36 hours of travel since leaving South Bend, we finally arrived safely and without further incident at Chennai International Airport in Tamil Nadu, India! Our plane touched down just a little after midnight, and after clearing customs and baggage claim, we were able to emerge into the heat of the night. Upon last check, it was a balmy 85 degrees (at midnight!!!), and the humidity is about 80%. Brrrr! Psyche!!! Anyway, shown here is our illustrious Chad Anderson having his passport and visa checked by local Indian Customs officials. Smiles help a lot, as does a casual greeting of “wanakum” (roughly translated “howdy”) when you step up into the line.
