We arrive in Singapore after
another smooth flight, where we have an 8-hour layover before the last
leg of our flight to Chennai airport. We quickly checkin to our
reserved rooms at the very nice Singapore Transit Hotel. I share a
triple room with Prapanna and John Robert, both of whom have been to
Auroville several times before, though their involvement has been more
with the Aurobindo Ashram in Pondicherry than with AV itself. It's
great to be able to take a shower and sleep horizontally in the
comfortable air-conditioned room, and I'm surprised how quickly the
alarm rings and it's time to get to our boarding gate. After
checking-in, Makasha and I take a quick run to the airport pharmacy to
buy some spring water and snacks. Then it's onto the plane for the final leg of our flight to
Chennai (formerly Madras), India.
