		<title>Best of Operation Wanderlust: Quotes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
At some point between Part 1 and Part 2 of Operation Wanderlust we realized that we should have been keeping track of the humorous things that we&#8217;ve read, spoken, or overheard.   In Nepal we finally compiled a list and kept adding to it.   Many of the quotes may be amusing only to us [...]]]></description>

		<title>Observations: Post Trip Thoughts</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Well&#8230; we have returned to the United States!  I can hear my parents cheering.  It turns out eight months may have been a bit too long for us.  We&#8217;re not quite jaded but still – there are only so many churches, forts, temples and palaces you can visit before they all start [...]]]></description>

		<title>Observations: India</title>
		<description><![CDATA[


The “head nod” is ubiquitous 	in India among men, women and children alike.  It&#8217;s like the A-OK 	gesture or the thumbs-up in other countries.  People do it whenever 	they&#8217;re conversing, but the best part is it can mean almost 	anything.  Some examples are yes, no, maybe, and thanks.


Cows, oxen, and water buffalo [...]]]></description>

		<title>Camel Safari Preview</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This past weekend, despite the heat, we set off on a  camel safari (one night) in the beautiful Thar Desert.  Our favorite part of the trip was when the camel stood up and sat down.  See the video of me on my camel Johnny Walker below.

		<title>Travel Blogs: TBD</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Check out this blog from Aron, a guy I know from graduate school.  He recently started a round-the-world trip and is currently in Peru.  He just returned from a backpacking-trip-gone-awry in the Colca Canyon where he survived by eating berries and cacti for  four days.  Our misadventures seem quite tame in comparison (which I guess [...]]]></description>

		<title>India &#8211; Second Impressions</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Marc may have been a bit harsh in his first assessment of the country.  We&#8217;ve spent a few more days  and visited a few more sites to realize that every place in India is not the same (wow, what a revelation, right?).  What has surprised us the most is the friendliness of the people.  Seemingly [...]]]></description>

		<title>Agra, India</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
 
Tuesday, April 27, 2010
 
On Tuesday we grabbed a morning bus from Khajuraho to Jhansi.  After a greasy lunch of fried samosas and kichoris and excited questioning from several engineering students we boarded a crowded train to Agra.  In Agra a friendly mototaxi driver named Bobby took us to the Taj Ganj neighborhood [...]]]></description>

		<title>Khajuraho, India</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When we arrived in Gaya we thought we would quickly settle into a hotel, eat and go to bed.  But as we are learning nothing is as easy as it should be in India.  For a fleeting moment it seemed like we would be returning to Bodhgaya for the night after four hotels told us [...]]]></description>
