DC and Chicago

[Guest guest]

Namaste All,

 

First, before I forget: Fe, thank you for the lovely letters! Your art work

makes them such fun and the time and love you give make them very, very special.

I haven't written back yet, but hopefully, I'll feel well enough to write soon.

 

I typically go to Iowa to see Mother during the summer, but I am concerned about

the strenuousness of that trip this summer. Could someone who's been to her

programs on Devi Bhava Day in Chicago or DC write back and let me know how

crowded, etc. those venues are. Any additional info, such as parking, where to

stay, etc would be appreciated.

 

Thanks so much in advance.

 

Your sister in Amma,

Snehalata

Iowa may be harder to get to, but compared with Iowa, Chicago is a madhouse.

Very crowded. Also, accommodations are much more expensive. I haven't done

the DC program, and last year was an anomaly, since it was a one-day program

to accommodate Amma's trip to Barcelona, but I hear that it's normally

pretty crowded. In fact, a friend who usually does the whole tour tells me

she doesn't much like the East Coast venues, although the RI retreat always

got good reviews.
