Joanne and Judy in India: February 2010
http://joannecumberland3.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Joanne and Judy in India. Monday, February 22, 2010. Home again, home again. Well I got home just in time apparently, Lufthansa pilots just went on strike today and they have cancelled most of their international flights. It is 4am on Monday morning, I woke up at 1am and looked at my pictures. They pretty much suck but I will post them soon. I will try to steal some of Judy's excellent pictures so that there will be at least one or two nice ones in there. We open Judy's bag. It was full! We landed in Van...

Joanne and Judy in India: March 2010
http://joannecumberland3.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Joanne and Judy in India. Monday, March 15, 2010. Well, it took me three weeks but the pictures are finally up for your viewing pleasure. Sorry for the wait. I like Blogspot for the writing part but the photo posting is not easy. I can write 10000 words faster than I can upload 10 pictures. But, on the positive side, the delay has given me more time to reflect, ruminate and remember (and recover! Thanks for checking in once in awhile. Joanne. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Joanne and Judy in India: Bird Camp!!!! YEAAAAAAAYYYY!!!
http://joannecumberland3.blogspot.com/2010/02/bird-camp-yeaaaaaaayyyy.html
Joanne and Judy in India. Friday, February 19, 2010. Sunday 6:30, my drive arrives. The man is also going to be my bird guide. His name is Lovin'. I kid you not (except he spells it Loven - but what fun is that). He also looks alot like Sayid from Lost. It is a long drive to the camp which it turns out is on the edge of a National Wildlife Preserve (whose name I have elsewhere) in the Western Ghats. Now, I'm sure I don't need to tell you, but the Western Ghats are a birding world hotspot! It was blazing ...

Joanne and Judy in India: September 2009
http://joannecumberland3.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Joanne and Judy in India. Tuesday, September 22, 2009. Shots, drinks and pills - Maybe we need rehab instead of vacation. So Judy and I went to Nova Travel Clinic on Friday. It turned into quite the epic event, almost two hours with the nurse. I figured I must be almost immune to every travel issue on the planet by now but not so apparently. Then the standard rabies talk, don't touch dogs, don't play with bats (although what if I want to hang out with cricket players? Cholera - something to avoid. Which ...

Joanne and Judy in India: January 2010
http://joannecumberland3.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Joanne and Judy in India. Sunday, January 31, 2010. Judy was quite excited to have a Sari but Suresh told her if she wanted to wear it she would have to get a sari blouse, the little half shirt, and a sari petticoat, apparently a cotton skirt is worn under the sari - who knew? The cutting of the sari. Just a tiny bit needed to show if it is a blend or pure silk. The offending plastic lump which, unfortunately didn't show up in the photo. Where the array of colours of silk was staggering. But Judy wan...

Joanne and Judy in India: August 2009
http://joannecumberland3.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Joanne and Judy in India. Monday, August 31, 2009. My vacation time is sort of approved, now I just need tickets. India is a whole different world). I plan to stay a week or so after Judy leaves and bum around wherever the mood strikes me. So, here is what I have done so far. You can see my priorities from this. First - bought India bird book. yeeeeeee (6 weeks ago). Second - had vacation time verbally approved (two weeks ago). Third - created Blog (last night). Not my actual card. Who offer even cheaper...

Joanne and Judy in India: October 2009
http://joannecumberland3.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Joanne and Judy in India. Monday, October 26, 2009. Bite Me with Dr. Mike Leahy (India episode) is NOT about food! So, more research. My next research project was very enjoyable. I went to Vancouver and met up with Melissa's friend Alisma. Etc Travel was inconsistent. And prices cheap. Excellent tip: in the south, hotel means restaurant. Always just ask for lodging to avoid confusion. Good stuff. Alisma. In the North and a backwater boat trip in the south. Are both possible? Updates. I have now spent...
