very simple

…well, sort of.

I’m trying out this new thing, which involves shipping my luggage to my destination prior to my trip.  I had read about it in a few places, and decided to give it a whirl this time around.  Not for the first part of my trip, mind you, but for the second part, which involves attending a 3-day long wedding.  Somehow, it seemed really illogical to drag an entire bag filled with fancy dresses and shiny shoes around southern India for a week and a half.  So I’m trying this out by shipping a bag full of that sort of thing (and hair products, and cosmetics, and all of the stuff that is entirely unnecessary for the part of the trip that involves sharing a hotel room with my brother for 9 days) directly to Singapore, where it should arrive several days before me.

Hopefully, everything will be fine.  Otherwise the bride will just have to contend with my wearing shorts and flip flops to her elaborately planned 3-day long traditional hindu wedding.  I’m sure she’ll understand.
