Taken in July of 2016 in Srinagar
I’m just back from three weeks of travel in Kashmir and Ladakh. I’m planning on doing a post about our experience traveling in Kashmir, which was interesting–to say the least–owing to the renewed unrest there of recent weeks. (It didn’t feel dangerous, but it was quite restrictive.)

Kolkata (Calcutta) has some distinctive taxicabs. They’re yellow Ambassadors, a model made by Hindustan Motors, featuring a solitary blue racing stripe.

As you enjoy your weekend, if at any point dread of the work-week to come arises, take a moment to reflect on the fact that at least you don’t have this guy’s job carrying stones on your head up several flight of uneven stone steps all day – everyday.

Taken in Great Himalayan National Park in July of 2015
Back in my day, we had the “Scenic Overlook.” Now when you’re trekking they have the “Mobile Phone Access Point.” Thoreau would cry.

DAILY PHOTO: Flag Runners, Wagah Crossing
Taken in April of 2016 at the Wagah border crossing
Taken at the Wagah (Attari) Border Crossing Retreat Ceremony. Kids running with the Indian flag toward the border with Pakistan. These were some of the more skilled flag wavers, which–oddly enough–meant they did less “waving” of the flag. Those who waved the flag tended to wrap it around the pole. These kids had technique, just hold on tight and run like the dickens.
