February 3, Hubli conference day 3, to Mapusa, Goa



We did our thing at the conference in front of 1,000+ people and it went really well.
Afterwards we were kidnapped to a “County Club” or country club for a few drinks and conversation, then back to the conference site to move on to Goa.
We had a hair-raising ride in the dark down a mountainous road that kept going and going and going for at least half an hour. We were doing about 60-80 kph (40-50 mph) down a road like ones in the mountains of North Carolina, passing trucks, swerving around people and bikes and cars without headlights. It was crazy. That is one thing I will not miss about India…the driving!
We arrived at our hosts’ homes in Mapusa. Elizabeth and I are sharing a room which is in a really beautiful house. The weather is much more humid here which should help my health a lot. My throat is getting sore again and the cough is still there at night.
Not much to write other than it was a long day and a long ride and I’m really tired.
