Playing with the wide angle

Huzzah, new wee camera - ruggedized, waterproof, attachable to roofracks until the rack itself falls off! Here is us playing with the new camera, at least in photo mode. We (the royal we, as in I) screwed it up a couple times while trying to take videos, so still sorting through to find the least crappy clips to upload.

Behold, the mighty Twitchy heself, driving his visiting Desi friends around Goa. Behold his unbloodied right arm, days before it became markedly more bloody.

Witness the wondrous "roads" of Assam state, replete with dust, rocks, dust, dust, and rocks. Imagine trying to sprint across a field of turtles while pushing a shopping cart, with a weed wacker strapped to your butt. That would have been way easier and more comfortable than this - yet strangely, still very similar. This was the camera attached to the roof rack GTA-styley, a cool angle which unfortunately only lasted another few hours this photo was taken. Which was on the second day.

GQ-in' it in Goa with some loverly hills, ACTUAL FREAKIN ASPHALT ROADS, and good ol' Twitchmobile. Good ol' as in crappy.

Admire the mighty Jau, newly empowered by conquering the Rickshaw Run, now advancing to sucker-punching Poseidon hisself. The waves at Varca and Palolem were great for bodysurfing and almost stealing getting my drawstring-less swimming pants (i.e. the same pants I wore the whole trip).

Stay tuned for more stories from the road, photos, videos, and monkeys!
