A new journey, a new destination . I am off to Jordan today courtesy Visit Jordan, the Tourism Board and I cannot tell you how excited I am. On Thanksgiving day, I feel grateful that I get to see so many unexpected surprises on my lap.

While I explore new vistas, here is my contribution for Skywatch- a sun setting against the backdrop of the Chausath Yogini temple, one of the oldest of the shrines in Khajuraho, built around the 9th century.

I was fortunate enough to have Lalit group of hotels hosting me on recommendation from Small Luxury Hotels of the World and I had a great guide in Mamaji, a veteran tourist guide and scholar who took us to all these temples.
For great skies around the world , visit Skywatch.

    In more ways
    than one knows
    the world is round …

    To some ,
    its the
    quiet of the dusk,
    trees standing still
    as the birds
    hurry home,
    after watching the
    believers
    at the Chausath Yogini Shrine…

    And to some,
    its a
    Cheerful,
    childike
    Shrek
    in profile,
    looking up
    and
    wishing
    the Rising Sun,
    a great
    Good Morning …..

    It takes all kinds
    to make our world.
    Round.
    Friedman, take that !
