And so it begins...

In the words of David Cross, "Read my blog!"

Well, here goes nothing. I'm certainly 10+ years too old to be blogging, but away we go.

I'm sitting in a hotel room in Offenbach, Germany where it's nearly midnight and am setting up this blog. The plan is to upload pictures, postings and general musings over the next three weeks during my trip to Germany, India and France.

Germany (three days) and France (three days) are both "for fun" and are sandwiching my two week work trip to Hyderabad, India. Most of the blogging will undoubtedly occur there.

I hate to start this off with an apology, but since I'm setting this up in Germany, Google has directed me to their Deutsch site and I'm trying to set this up by following instructions in German. Unfortunately, my German is limited to things like "danke" and "bitte" -- and of course something that Josh (sister's fiancee) taught me that translates to, "DON'T SHOOT!"

The trip from Chicago to Frankfurt was completely uneventful, mostly due to the really comfortable Lufthansa business class PrivateBed (thanks Deloitte!), although I thought the champagne served just before take off could have been a tad bit colder. I know, it's tough being me!

Good times...
