First day - Colours of autumn

---

After a month-long preparation ( and a visa-application wait of 3 months for me ) we’re finally here for 3 months. Sounds like a long time but I know it will go by in a flash. The journey from Bangalore to New York was too long …made more uncomfortable by the 5 hr wait in Mumbai. Stopover in Paris could have been a breather ‘cept that the French do not allow you to disembark !! well to cut a long story short..we arrived at our hotel in white plains ( about 30 miles north of Manhattan) totally exhausted….next morning we set about exploring our neighborhood on foot

Few things which I observed as a first time traveler to U.S. from India:
a)Its cold. Yeah even colder than Delhi winters. ( of course this is just the beginning)

b)Autumn is getting over , luckily the trees still have brilliant colours. You can make out from the pics just how much I liked that !!

c)Its squeaky clean everywhere

d)This is XXL country …americans definitely believe in size..everything comes in huuuuge packs…from milk cartons to fish fillets to just plain sugar…im having storage issues as the kitchenette in the apartment is kinda tiny.

Sanjit in his true style has already set up elaborate excel models on how we will spend money here, travel etc !!!

Guess that’s about it for now …as out of the 32 hrs I’ve been here…I’ve slept for 20 !! today we plan to visit NYC so there will be lots to update tonite…
Enjoy the pics …
