We spent the 2008-09 academic year at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) in Bangalore, India. My wife and I were Fulbright Scholars and our three children were attending the Canadian International School. In my blog I posted occasional observations about our life in India, and photos from our travels. Highlights from the blog are linked below, but I encourage you to explore all the posts from August 2008 through May 2009.
