Ranthambore


I think our visit to the tiger sanctuary in Ranthamore has gone alright…

(Special thanks to Hema at Wipro for reminding me of the existence of Ranthambore, and to the great staff at Tiger Safari Resort Hotel in Sawai Madhopur for helping us through some complications along the way, like me misplacing our passports…)

trip pictures

FYI for friends, etc.: I am going to continue journaling privately for post-trip publication, probably, but rather than bore entire planets worth of people in the meantime, I’m just mentioning small things on identica (with republishing to twitter and facebook) and posting pictures on my gallery install. Both of those have RSS feeds so you can subscribe if you want.

Law and policy nerdery ahoy: I saw the site of the traditional courts of the Common Law, the Temple Inn, and Chatham House. Soooo nerdy am I. Krissa loves me anyway, for some reason.

looking forward to filling gallery 3 with wedding and honeymoon pictures

Just a brief note here to say thanks to the gallery3 developers- they appear to have taken the lessons of wordpress and other successful open source web services to heart; the new gallery (even though still in beta) is a pleasure to set up and (more importantly) a pleasure to use. Even in the current, occasionally still rough state, it is enough of an improvement over gallery 2 that I’m going to use it for the handful of wedding pictures I’ve posted and honeymoon pictures to come.

I realize that the import from the old stuff is imperfect (lots of over-rotation now that it does it automatically), and that should be a consideration if you’re considering upgrading from g2 to g3, but that’s something I can fix later.
