Indian Visa approved!

My visa for India was approved by the Consulate General of India yesterday.  It's official, I'm headed to India.
Tourist Visa on Arrival in India is now available for US Citizens traveling on Holiday, but I applied for a business visa since I'm going for work.

My next International trip

I'm making preparations for my next international trip to Mysore, India in late January.  This will be my 1st trip to India, and I expect it to be quite an adventure.  This trip is for my job at Software Paradigms International (SPI) for 2 weeks.  My husband, Paul, will travel with me.  I'm looking forward to posting pictures and thoughts from my trip.
