Sunday: A Day of Rest

 Today we took it a little easier, enjoying a wonderful buffet breakfast at our hotel before heading out to Cubbon Park which was created in 1870.  In the park and surrounding it, there were a number of buildings from the colonial days, now being swallowed up by the modern city.  We walked about thirty minutes from our hotel to the park (not a small feat given the traffic and lack of functioning pedestrian crossing lights) and then had a leisurely stroll through the gardens.  Many Bengalureans were doing the same. We also visited an Indian crafts shop on the way to the gardens.   The final photo is from our hotel room.

  1. Just caught up with your interesting travels to date. Getting any reading done? Who figures out the itinerary for each day's explorations? Sure seems empty of any tourists where you have been. Rand and Fred

A change of plans...While in Bengaluru, Joe got sick and we decided that rather than seeking medical attention in Indian, we would change our plane tickets and head to Paris, where we have been able to rent an apartment in the Latin Quarter near the Sorbonne.  Joe has recovered, but I got sick and have been taking it easy.  So now we begin a French adventure.     

Finishing off France - Les Beaux Villages

 We finished off the French leg of the trip by visiting a number of lovely villages in the areas of France, bordering the Mediterranean and just north of the Spanish border.   Le Canal du Midi Joe beside the canal near where we spend Easter weekend. The castle at Carcassonne

An Ambitious Reading List.

  During the time off, I plan to read a number of books.  The list is divided into the categories of: Spiritual Development, Team Building, Fiction (Books that have been on my bedside reading table for a while.), India in General, Hinduism, Church Development, and Other Books (Such as catching up on some computer related materials.).  Click here to see the list.
