To fur or not to fur
Heard a great poem at a poetry slam. It went like this: After her mother had died, the poet found a fur coat in her mother's wardrobe. She did not want to waste it: a mink or several had given their lives for that coat. So the poet was happy to argue that by a kind of cosmic compensation - she, the poet had been vegetatian for 30 years - she could wear the coat. In fact she wore it to perform her poem in. With its reddish tinged the fur matched her hair. Trouble was otherwise she never got the chance to wear it. She lived in the subtropics and it was too warm for fur.

sakyasujata
I have visited sujata temple twise.I love sujata very much because she offered food for Siddarta Gautama in order to meditate to become an enligten-human(first) in the universe. In boodgaya I met one Mr Luxman who promoted sakya sujuta charity. He travelled with us.He is one of the freinds of Mr Wasantha from Sri Lanka. I would like to meet Luxman.

The photos are amazing the commentry is just as good

GO GIRL......Go Grae....
Enjoying your offbeat travels.......love what you are doing. When do you arrive in England and for how long are you there? Any plans to JA or USA. I usually come to England for Wimbledon end of June. Saw JB and Ruth at Xmas. He was visiting his daughter who is getting married this year.

Why?
I agree that the famous Lake Baikal ... and there is a great holiday. But in Siberia, too many beautiful places ... and I do not understand why foreign people do not come here to relax. We do not bite :) I am pleased to be talked to ...

Amazing!
What an amazing experience - something we'd love to do. Happy travels xxxxx
