Am back in Amersham after a three week trip to India. The vacation (a misnomer) in India was wonderful. So wonderful it was that at one point my body gave up digesting in disgust. A few books I read during the vacation:-

- Tom Sawyer and The Innocents Abroad by Twain
- Education of a Wandering Man by Louis L'Amour - Thanks to a note sometime back on Sunil's blog that introduced me to this book.
- The Enigma of Arrival by Naipaul (currently reading)
