... with flowers and geometric shapes and filigree. <br><br>On a river a couple of kids fished from a coracle, the water just inches from the lip of the circular craft, and above dark rain clouds brought a sudden deluge that turned day to near night. The monsoons have been unpredictable this year, and late. The rain fell hard and thick, traffic slowed and the highway ran slick with water.

... hours ago" &#8211; ha! Amazing, my favourite quote of the whole trip, thank you Mr Forester!<br><br><br>Unfortunately we didn&#8217;t spot the tigers, but we lingered around the deer hoping they would be his next feed but no such luck there either. After a spending most of the day aspiring to being David Attenborough we left to check in to our 'hotel&#8217;. To get to the hotel we crossed one of those wood hanging bridges ...

... it worked ! phew.. there was no service station near by at all. luckily we made out of that nonsense road.<br><br>We stopped in between to take a look @ the silk worm cocoons. amma was mentioning that "kollegal" silk is famous ! <br><br>Again stopped at kamat upahaar finished so called dinner.. and then left to bangalore. Sriram was getting tired.. the minute we hit the kengeri - bad traffic and tiredness took a toll on sriram. we reached home aroun 9pm ...

Bosi sme sli asi sto metru po rozpalenym betonu. Poskaujic jako koza na rozpalenejch kamnech (ne na lede)..sme dohopsali do prohledavaciho objektu, kde mi i nasli vyzranou sestku nahore. Potom, uz v prujezde palace, sme normalne sli po zemi a vyzvedli si sluchatka (zazrakem v ...

... br> <br>A roundup of news from the other Alpha groups: <br> <br>We settled quickly into our camp at the new project site in Kanive Mallapanna, and we have devised a revolutionary 'rice bag buffet' for lunch (in which Pete Doherty advises hungry venturers that masala rice 'could be magic' whilst Gandhi feels that tomato rice 'is our destiny'). And the breaking news is that we have respectfully christened our Project Managers Queenie Andrew and Princess Jenny. The ...

We left Wayanad late morning and got a local bus to Mysore. The trip was fairly easy although we unexpectedly changed bus along the way... but fortunately the new conductor did not ask us to pay another fare on the second bus...maybe the fact that we slept along the way (or pretend to sleep in case of Jesmar) helped us!! Our main purpose for visiting Mysore was that I ...

My one act play consisted of me pretending to spread something on a piece of paper and then taking another piece of paper and pressing it on top. My oscar moment was when I showed that voila! they were stuck together. This is when I repeated glue and paste. I looked ...

... great job hosting Christmas this year. i didn't have milk and cookies to put out, but used the next best thing on hand: 2 mini bananas and a Sprite (i'm sure even santa likes a little variety). well, that's my 20 rupees worth. join me next week for "adventures of an 11 hour bus ride." think "peace on earth" a little harder this holiday season, heck, make it a new year's resolution (i dare you.). i love and miss you all. bonne annee and namaste. tedrick.

... then it's photography time (which includes more walking around and more chai (it costs 16 cents for Pete's sake!)),then if it's not time for a bucket shower, it's time to set out my next day's running shorts, and you got it, sleep very hard. speaking of bucket showers [sniff,sniff], it might be a 2 bucket night. i should get started. but, as always feel free to drop me a line, or to 'block' this email address, or if you're in the Gokulum neighborhood, drop on by.
