Prologue...
Most of you who follow my other blog, are already aware of encounters with US embassy and my journey of lifetime to Mumbai, after which I finally got my US visa.
So, as the fate intended, i was finally set to fly on Jan 9th, supposedly to be in US for 3 months for an onsite assignment. As i was going there for the first time, the shopping list was longet than a toilet paper roll.
It was winter time there so jackets, gloves, scraf, thermals were must have. I was not sure about the food options there so i had an entire bag full of instant food, maggie, soups, rice, spices and what not. It was like i was going on a world tour, 2 checkin bags 50+ lbs each, a cabin bag and a laptop bag.
(Now, if you are carrying a laptop bag, carry the classic styled laptop bag, dont carry a haversack for laptop, Air France screwed me for 200$, cos they wont allow a cabin bag and a laptop haversack in flight, well and to be honest, combined it weighed around 50 lbs).
Anywez, more on travel tips later, lets start with some sightseeing tips...
