on hiatus

Going on hiatus again. A friend from Canada, Anya, is arriving tonight and we will spend the next week exploring this loverly country.
So, be patient, I'll be back in about a week and a half with more stories of adventures. We are going to two places I haven't been before, Goa and Udaipur, then the day she leaves I have to fly to Calcutta for a meeting...I'll have almost no time there but will try to take in some sights if I'm not to tired...are there any sights in Calcutta?
Comment du jour: you know how Bombay is now called Mumbai? Well Calcutta is now officially Kolkata, only because things are almost always misspelled here anyway you will also see several other variations of the spelling here and there, like Kolcutta, so it took me a few months to figure out what the "real" name of the city is...but I still say Calcutta.
