Today’s
Reflection:
It is a day of nice gentle rain. No complaints. It rained through
the night and there has been a light female rain all morning. A cool and cloudy
day always means laundry for me. I’ve already done two loads with only one more
to go.
Nice to watch the Broncos beat the Rams. It was quite a game. The
Cards lost to the 49ers and the Cowboys lost to the Ravens.
Richard was up early (4AM) to take the presenter from the retreat
to the airport for an early flight. He was headed home when Laura called to say
the flight had been cancelled. He picked up the guy and will try again later
today. He has another day to visit with Dave and Stephanie is still there. Good
all the way around.
Historical events
Cool to know:
You can ride a train
through the "Tunnel of Love."
The Ukrainian rails
actually service an industrial train, but couples can still hitch a ride (or
take one of these affordable family train trips)
and make a wish, according to a new
tourist legend.

Most first-time visitors
know Jaipur, in Rajasthan, India, as the Pink City, but the earlier royal
capital was centered on Amber Fort. That's where much of the dynasty's
political and architectural history was shaped. The fort developed over more
than a century, beginning under Raja Man Singh I in 1592 and continuing under
later Kachwaha rulers who controlled the kingdom that eventually became Jaipur
State. The royal family moved to the newly planned city of Jaipur in 1727, but
Amber continued to serve ceremonial functions.
Interesting Space
Facts:
So you’d therefore
assume there are less days in a year on Mars than Earth, right? Wrong!
Because Mars orbits the
sun slower than the Earth, there are actually 687 Martian days in a Martian
year!
