Another obvious candidate for a snapshot, the iconic Palace of the Winds or Hawa Mahal (हवा महल), Jaipur, in its morning glory before the crowds appeared.

Highly interesting drive from Jaipur to Rathambore today! Going along an Indian highway is a sure way to discover the Indian way of life, even if it can get very puzzling at times…
off to India

Tomorrow morning, I am off to India, first for a week of touring in Rajasthan, starting with the city Jaipur, and nearby states, then for the ISBA conference in Varanasi (Bénarés) organised by Satyanshu Upadhyay and the DST Centre for Interdisciplinary Mathematical Sciences at the Banaras Hindu University. The list of speakers and the program of the conference is quite impressive and I am looking very much attending this conference (as well as the first leg of the trip, of course). (I hope to get enough broadband and to keep my camera long enough to post a few pictures along the way…)
