Believe it or not, but I am still alive. I was Chair of a symposium last week...and that took every waking second of my days and nights....don't even get me started about the so called co-ordinator.

It is a beautiful day here in Iqaluit, -25 with no wind. I went for a walk and layed down for a while to bask in the sun. Aahhh what a wonderful world I live in.

My camera died when I was in PEI on the way home from India...luckily I have been able to download all the pics, but I haven't been able to take any new ones...and it looks like I will need to purchase a new camera...so it might be a couple of months before I get to do that. If anyone has suggestions for a new one let me know. The last one I purchased was done in less than 20 minutes the night before I flew to Europe. I'd like to put a little more thought into the purchase this time around.

I am still trying to upload more pics from India, not sure why blogger hates me so much lately but here's what I have managed today...

Temple just outside Agra

White marble inlaid with semi precious stones...glue is a well kept secret

What's wrong with this picture? I think it is the Pizza Hut...and I saw McDonald's too...don't ask what was on the menu...I didn't go in
