things happening in subcontinental asia; china

Constance (of moving-to-Thailand-fame below) and I love India. Love the food, love the culture, love the architecture, love the Himalayas, love each and every one of the 1.1 BILLION people (more on how that part's not true later) living in the most historically and geopolitcally interesting emerging global superpower I've ever visited (we loved it all enough to get married there in June — read about it on Con's blog here).

Above all.. love the fact that yesterday, India won its first individual Olympic gold medal ... in its entire 9,000 year history.

Even India thinks that's funny:



Love, love India.

To think that they've been competing in the Olympics for nine long millenia without and individual medal...
