Asiatic: October 2008
http://westuntotheeast.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 30, 2008. I never really wrote that much about Mongolia, but Gill took some wonderful pictures and Sally wrote as eloquently as she always does. If you want to see some photos and read about my time there (now just about two months ago, which I can't believe), please just click the link below. Http:/ gillandsally.blogspot.com/2008/09/mongolia.html. Monday, October 27, 2008. Sharing hospital joy and misery. Friday, October 24, 2008. I'll want to remember this. Finally arrived in Varnasi ...

Asiatic: September 2008

Friday, September 26, 2008. Capitulation: pictures of me. For those that have told me that they like my pictures but would like to see what I look like.yes, I haven't shaved in 3 weeks. Oohhhhhhh mannnn, let's make a big deal. 1 In my guesthouse in Namche. Perfect if I didn't despise myspace. 2 On a hike today up to my first view of Everest. This isn't it, but it sure is purty. Waiting for the plane in Kathmandu:. This is the airport in Lukla. Note the downward slant:. A view of Namche from the top:.

Asiatic: November 2008
http://westuntotheeast.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 27, 2008. Things are horrific in Mumbai. I am so sad to hear about what is happening. As for me, I am safe in northern India, far from the current situation. I am supposed to travel to Mumbai by plane on Monday, but the plans are obviously tentative at this point. My next destination after Mumbai is Bangkok (albeit for 24 hours), and there seems to be some serious unrest there as well. If you aren't aware of what's going on. Thursday, November 13, 2008. There are a lot of things that I...

Asiatic: Osaka, Kobe, Kyoto
http://westuntotheeast.blogspot.com/2009/01/osaka-kobe-kyoto.html
Sunday, January 4, 2009. Osaka, Kobe, Kyoto. I love this part of Japan. This area, in southwest Japan, is called Kansai, and with the rail pass I got I can just bounce around. I’m based in Osaka in a capsule hotel, which serves two functions: hilarious and cheap. But, from here, I can make it to Kobe in 23 minutes and Kyoto in 45 (or 20 on the bullet train). So what have I done with all of this opportunity? Girl from the hotel came in to the bar to meet the people I was playing darts with. Small world.

Asiatic: Sumo Tokyo

Friday, January 16, 2009. Going to a match this afternoon. Luckily I'm here during tournament time. I will take pictures and post them soon. Most likely the same day I post the other few hundred photos that are still not up. Coming home Sunday. Feelings run across the spectrum, as expected. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). My brother was in france. Andrew was on the road with ra ra riot. Dave mountain was capturing london. Matt medved sure can write. Gill and sally - a passage to london.

Asiatic: The constant change
http://westuntotheeast.blogspot.com/2008/12/oh-man.html
Tuesday, December 2, 2008. I'm in Mumbai now. Things are fine. I was supposed to leave on Friday for a 24 hour layover in Bangkok before getting to Hong Kong for the week. Considering there were thousands of people in my way (or one now ex-PM, depending on how you see the situation), Bangkok was no longer an option, and Thai Air had canceled my flight. Today I had to figure it all out. Find a flight back to the US (now booked) and deal with how I'd deal with Thailand. I've been off the radar for quite so...

Asiatic: Lack of posts
http://westuntotheeast.blogspot.com/2008/12/lack-of-posts.html
Friday, December 12, 2008. Arrived in Sydney after about a week in Hong Kong. Incredible. Off to Tahiti tomorrow for a week of surf, then cruising with the family around the islands the next week for my dad's birthday. Yes, this is the ridiculous sounding part of the trip, just in case the previous months haven't been crazy enough. Just wanted to say hi.I'm alive. I'll write sometime, I think.

Asiatic: Here in Osaka
http://westuntotheeast.blogspot.com/2009/01/here-in-osaka.html
Friday, January 2, 2009. Lately I've been a man of few words, I know. As I've said multiple times over the course of the last two months or so, I think that will change. This morning I picked up the suits I had made and caught my flight to the place in which I reside, Osaka. I get to see all the celebrity endorsements that they don't talk about in the US. What brought this to mind is that right next to this computer terminal is a vending machine selling coffee. On the bottom of the machine is an ...
