A new adventure in India.this time with a business twist. Monday, January 29, 2007. The King built the palace as a tribute to his second wife after she died giving birth to his 14th child. He meant to build an identical black Taj Mahal across the river, but his son imprisoned him before he could realize that goal. You can see the foundation from the back of the Taj.

http://mforan.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
A new adventure in India.this time with a business twist. Tuesday, September 05, 2006. Summer's Gone. . . My blog ended somewhat unexpectedly and I honestly doubt anyone (besides Jeni) is actually reading this anymore; however, I didn't want to leave my faithful readers hanging. I left Ghana on August 10th after a crazy weekend of visiting the sacred crocodiles and doing some major shopping. Here are some final pictures for your enjoyment. Wahab and I posing with the sacred crocodile. The filters before ...

A new adventure in India.this time with a business twist. Friday, June 30, 2006. Every morning I am greeted by about 7 children under the age of 4 that live just outside my guesthouse.

Apparently this is entirely normal. 7: Doing business over the phone is not ...

A travelogue of sorts.mostly random musings from Kigali, and who knows where else. Monday, July 31, 2006. Had either malaria or typhoid or both. (HIV prevalence in the camp is extremely low – well under 1% at last count – the main medical problem by far is malaria). The omnipresent UNHCR tarp that acts as floor, walls, and ceiling in buildings. Throughout the camp cast a greenish glow over everything, making our surroundings feel a little eerie yet somehow appropriate. Friday, July 28, 2006. Better Late ...
