multimedia

Ok folks,
it's done, I have survived India, but even more importantly, I have survived the devastating battle with sporadic internet access, blogger's nerve-wreckingly disfuncional software, and a runaway DVD that's been playing hide and seek with me for almost two weeks. Boy what I've been through ...

Anyway, I'm proud to present a selection of our memoires, let the photos speak for themselves. Feel free to inquire if you think they don't say enough.

Namaste!

missing in driveby

There's a reason I left this blog unattended for so long. OK, there are many; anyway, it's easy to notice that things got a little out of hand.

First I owe my apologies to everyone that was waiting patiently for any pictures to appear. No, my camera didn't get stolen again, because, for safety reasons, this time I didn't take one with me. I did, however, mispack (not lost!) the DVD containing pictures from the other three cameras that my mates were carrying. Of course I haven't been able to retrieve it yet.

Apparently I underestimated my level of disorganisation after coming back from India. The end of festival summer in Ljubljana affected my nightlife, turning my last days into a packing race, and reminding me once more to dejunk my life. I was hoping to find a reset button in Luxembourg, but instead I've landed into an even bigger mess, very blogworthy on its own. I'll have plenty to write about once the pace settles a little. (Though something tells me it's only just started ...)

At the moment, I'd settle for finding the DVD with 4GB of memories, although a lot more is stored in my brain. I wish I had a USB plug behind my ear so that I could share those on the blog ... But until some Mengele out there comes up with that, I'll keep looking for that DVD.
