Arrival in New Delhi

We have arrived in New Delhi. The plane ride was actually great. Michael Zimmering got us upgraded for free to first class which was a blessing because the seats turn into beds. They have movies..Yay!, music and great service. Everyone on the plane knew about Jake and they were extra nice. They even baked him fresh chocolate chip cookies. We arrived on time in New Delhi at 8:15 and checked into imigration, (not much fun), then sped past customs to baggage where we found that they left Jakes wheel chair in Chicago. So Jake used a rental wheelchair to get him past all the walking. The elevator was out of commission so we used the escalator. The assistant was looking at me, then the wheelchair, then me then the stairs. I think he was contemplating taking Jake down the stairs in the wheelchair but instead, Jake got up and with me in front and the assistant in back and slowly made his way down the stairs. We found the driver who was to take us to our hotel and proceeded to go through the crowded streets toward the hotel. We had met two ladies on the flight one of which travels to India every other year. She told us we would be staying in the nicest hotel in New Delhi. When we arrived at the hotel I realized that there must be more than one hotel with the same name as this hotel was certainly not the finest I had seen. It did come with bugs on the floor at no extra charge and the power goes off in the room about every 5 minutes. Real Indiana Jones stuff! Jake was laying on the bed and said "Dad, something just moved on my bed". We decided not to shower but rather to sleep in our clothes until we arrive at the hotel in Ludhiana the next day.
We will leave at 9am this morning and arrive in Ludhiana at the hotel by approx 3pm. Then we will freshen up and contact the clinic.
One final note would be a thankyou to my brother Jack who saw me in my Indiana Jones getup and told Jake that I look like I am in charge of the ride at Disneyland. Real ego booster.
