I'm back in Hyderabad...

... after an exhausting, but truly exhilarating summer spent continent and time zone hopping. It's good to be home, in spite of the strange smell floating around the house (it's very humid right now, in Hyderabad, after a monsoon that saw practically no rain). The highlights of the whole trip were definitely the readings in New York and going to the SCBWI national conference in Los Angeles, but I also loved walking around Jacmel, in Haiti, and going back to Spain, in the same apartment where I used to spend most of my summers as a kid, and taking my daughters to the Feria in Malaga, all dressed up as gitanas. I'll post pictures tomorrow. Have to get those suitcases out of the way, now...
