Where in the world....

I was asked a question at work last night regarding the location of the Cities I will be in. I am flying into New Delhi, in the state of Uttar Pradesh, which is in the north central region. I am staying there for a night and then will fly to Kolkata the 31st. Kolkata is in West Bengal, on the east side of the country,near the Bay of Bengal.

The recent attacks on India were in Mumbai which was Bombay. It is on the south/central west side of the country on the Arabian sea in a state called Maharashtra. This is the center of the Indian movie industry, the Indian Hollywood-- Bollywood. I WILL NOT be going there on this trip.

Here is a clip from my favorite bollywood movie, Jodhaa Akbar, about Emperor Akbar and his Rajput (Rajasthan is an Indian state. Rajaput means the sons of Kings) wife. He was a Muslim ruler, but was open to other religions and even allowed his wife to stay Hindu. This movie is loosely based on History.
