Trying to Start 'Life of Pi' Again

I bought the book on a whim some time back, and started reading it at once. But somehow i was sidetracked with a lot of other stuff (and books) and it was left on my shelf.

The other day i was packing for my trip overseas, and so i dumped the book into my hand luggage for the flight (I can't stand doing nothing for more than 5 minutes, let a lone a 3 hour flight).

So I'm now into chapter 7 of the book, which is quite okay so far. Hopefully I can finish it this time around.

Incidentally i visited this night safari at the time I was reading about Pi Patel's growing up years in the Pondicherry zoo. Ironic.

It's quite interesting looking through the collection, seeing how sci-fi cover art has evolved over the years. Now if only they'd alow you download the books... :)

Cake Shaped Like Discworld's Great A'Tuin!

I bet eyeris would get a kick out of this.

This lady made a wedding cake for her daughter shaped like Discworld's Great A'Thuin! The detail is amazing, from the turtle to the 4 elephants to the rimfall...
