Goodbye for Now

So I'm back at Penn, not quite ready to get back into the grind, and without baggage thanks to the incompetence of the baggage crew in India who neglected to get about 75 passengers' bags onto our plane. We arrived in JFK an hour early, so I'm probably not going to buy the excuse that there wasn't enough time or incentive to get all those bags on the plane. Oh well, it's a small matter, especially relative to all the hardship I've seen on my trip.
I kind of skipped out on writing about some of the work days because of time. But from reading these entries, I hope all of you have been able to get a good perspective about our work, both its achievements and its limitations, which I think are equally important to understand.
I would recommend starting at the beginning of the blog if you haven't read it yet, for a couple reasons. First, I think the quality of my writing was better at the beginning and got progressively superficial (and probably worse) because of time, and second, I think you'll get the full effect of the trip from starting at the beginning and will be able to follow the evolving thinking of myself and my group in the context of our overall mission. It's easier to use the tabs on the right to jump to each post rather than scrolling through.
I hope you all enjoyed this view into my life the past couple weeks. Thanks for reading.

All the best,

Ritwik
