Tourists must balk.

Arrrg blogger is driving me nuts! I've posted the same pic THREE times. Also, I was commenting on your rainforest protector thing. Does that mean you handcuff yourself to a tree so that the big bad guys don't cut them down :)

we have a lot of 'modern art' installations here in bombay... dashed if i can figure out what they mean.

there's this one made of really large nails, that looks like an ice-cream of some sort... turns out to be a 'representation of tension between india and pakistan'.
