The Journal of a Vagabond. Thursday, January 20, 2011. To the Greatest Masters of Art, from the Louvre - A Eulogy. Chronologically, this post should‘ve come after the travelogue of our Paris getaway, but frankly, how does it matter? It surely takes more than a few random hours to appreciate all the art at the Louvre. It is said that it would take months to view the museum’s entire collection, allowing a person. 30 secs for each of their dispalys – 30 seconds? Without much ado, let me list out my personal...

The Journal of a Vagabond. Friday, October 1, 2010. Ancient Rome - Day One. Modern Rome, the city of stunning fountains and dusty alleys - of churches simple and splendid, where papacy is inextricably intertwined with the architecture,with a history rich and vivid. Our week's holiday in the city took us back into time,down the lanes of the great Roman empire and into the very heart of Christiandom. The brilliantly lit colosseum by night. Posted by Soan Paree.

The Journal of a Vagabond. Tuesday, November 23, 2010. Upon the white cliffs of Dover. The sea is calm to-night. The tide is full, the moon lies fair. Upon the straits; on the French coast the light. Gleams and is gone; the cliffs of England stand;. Glimmering and vast, out in the tranquil bay. Come to the window, sweet is the night-air! And finally , I could see the chalk white cliffs looming ahead and quickened my pace. Milky white cliffs,scattered over with lush greenery - segulls,by the. The wonder I...

The Journal of a Vagabond: The Great Egypt Experience!
http://a-vagabonds-journal.blogspot.com/2010/11/great-egypt-experience.html
The Journal of a Vagabond. Monday, November 15, 2010. The Great Egypt Experience! The wonder I saw in black and white in the pages of my history text! Watching the city at night from the 8. Day One dawned nice and bright and I couldn’t keep still in the car until I could spot the tell-tale mammoth pyramids looming ahead in the far distance miles before we’d reached the destination! The pyramids of Giza are the last surviving members of the Ancient Wonders of the world. Http:/ www.outerworlds.com/...PS: F...

The Journal of a Vagabond: February 2011
http://a-vagabonds-journal.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
The Journal of a Vagabond. Friday, February 11, 2011. A day out at The Silent Valley National park. A tiny house in the attapadi hills. The temple with the policemen sentries! Somehow, all I could think of was young men clad in animal skins and head gear made of feathers and leaves, jumping and dancing around a fire, singing in an alien tongue ;-) My bad! All thanks to Indian movies, the very word ‘tribal’ evokes such prejudiced scenes in my stunted imagination :-). Yet another attapadi tribal temple.

But well, that’s really how our trips to India usually are!
