Heather and I are sitting at a Starbucks in Heathrow enjoying Uncle Eddie's vegan cookies and acai berries dipped in dark chocolate. So far so good. Our Virgin Atlantic flight from LAX was pretty empty so we were able to snag the last empty row of four seats and we traded off "sleeping" in shifts. We both feel pretty good considering. While it was my turn to lay down I thought how long duration flights are like childbirth, while you're there you swear you'll never do this again but once it's over you forget the pain and discomfort. True I've never gone through childbirth but I did experience holding my kid's mothers hand during labor and that was painful enough.

Heather left her journal of all of our planned activities in SD so she's planning our retreat on the fly. She says that's how it should be and that Mother India is already orchestrating.

There is no free wifi spots in this terminal at Heathrow but there are four different paid internet connects within fifty feet of each other so I'll send this once I get to Mumbai.

Our flight to Mumbai leaves at 9pm and we land tomorrow at 1130. Hope we snag another row of empty seats.
