Post from Reading, PA, USA

This is my second trip to USA. This time am used to the full flight journey. The last time when I've travelled it is really hectic and not sure about the flight schedule and the international plans. Not any more.. This time i really enjoyed my journey with single malt scotch blended whisky at all the times.

My journey started from Hyderabad air port to Dubai. As just it started, I've asked them for scotch and they supplied few shots in 4 hrs of flight time and that’s a smooth flight journey to Dubai. Well it is almost midnight at Dubai when we arrived. It took about an hr for us to get into the security clearance and wait for the flight to be available for us to check-in. Well, here I must bring to your attention that they didn’t allow me to carry my tooth paste. The security agent said that the tooth paste is allowed only if it is packed in a plastic bag. It is really a pain in wrong place to find a plastic bag after you finished all the required security clearance. But finally made it.

After getting into the flight to New York, decided to stick to the same plan, that is have some scotch and sleep well. But it is unfortunate that i got a seat between two old ladies. yaaaaaaaaaaaak.. The counter clerk at Shamshabad air port cheated me. I’ve told him to help me with a seat that can be meaningful for me, as am suffering for leg injury. Bad boy..

Anyhow, after a long flight from Dubai to “John F. Kennedy” air port at New York, landed in USA for the 2nd time by the morning time around 8 AM. By the way, I forgot to mention about the Curd Rice & “గారెలు”. Mom gave me these for the journey. No one asked me until i get to the embassy officer. Well, at that time i’d to declare about the food that am bringing. And the embassy officer denied my entry due to bringing the food. And i’d to eat that, as I couldn’t miss the food prepared by MOM. The embassy officer granted me the visa for 3 months, after making sure that I consume the food and cleaning the carriage.

It is going to be more for a single post, so shall come back with a 2nd post ..
