My Birthday

 A Sri-Lankan tuk tuk back to the airport not long after we awoke to our obnoxious alarm.  Only to arrive at the airport for them to tell us that (Happy Birthday Kahlia) Sri Lankan Airlines had overbooked the flight, and they wanted us to fly out either after midnight or the next day.  Not cool.  The nice guy next to us actually gave up his seat and we got on the flight after all.  At Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport (CSIA) in Mumbai (Still “Bombay” to locals) we eventually met up with Reagan and Sarah and got a taxi to Colaba down on the water.  We drove past the most beautiful colonial buildings.  Sydney got jipped with only the rocks to show for our heritage!  Unfortunately, after finding out 400 Rupees guesthouse and eating dinner, we all crashed into bed.  But not before we lined up a day as extras in Bollywood and Reagan and Sarah pulled out an inedible birthday cake from Goa and they all sang me “Happy Birthday”.
