Plane Food: Hot & Spicy



We felt sad about leaving Honk Kong on the 30th of April but were looking forward to seeing our future home for 4 months, India! After we got checked in and arrived at the gate we knew we were going somewhere different. Our plane going to Delhi had a loosely defined line that was anything but orderly while the plane next to us going to Brisbane had a normal straight, “we want to get on the plane orderly”, line. That line to Brisbane was the last orderly line I’ve seen.

The plane food was great! I wasn’t quite expecting it but low and behold even the curry they serve on the plane is fantastic! I couldn’t wait to land in a place with such tasty food.

The immigration line confirmed that there would be no orderly lines in India. If we had any doubt the first few minutes on the roads dismissed any notion of “orderly” we might have.

Brooke Weeks our friend, EWB president, and partner for the first month in India met us at the airport at 4:00AM! She was bright and smiling, as always, and ready to introduce us to India even at such an early hour. Adventure awaits!
