As some of you may be aware we are about to embark on another family adventure. This time we are heading to India to celebrate with a dear friend and his beautiful fiancee on their wedding day.

As you can imagine, travel to a foreign country needs a certain amount of planning and when that holiday includes a child under 5 the plans need to be even more researched...

So my main question is why do web designers have sentences like, " to view this page in (insert foreign language, even better if it has a different alphabet) please click here."

If we could read the language we wouldn't need to "click here"! Surely, please tell me I am not loosing my mind, but SURELY it would be better to have that statement in the language you were addressing??????

Indian websites also have a wonderful knack for stating the obvious.
My best find of the day on an Indian Website goes to Ranthambore National Park.
Under the heading "When is the best time to visit" It has this statement: "

Time To Visit
The Best Time to Visit Ranthambore National park will be from 1st October to 30th June.
Rest of the Time Park is closed for the Visitors

Isn't that just brilliant!! I love it!!

I am getting very excited to experience this amazing culture and country.
