The dreaded Lurgie strikes!

It had to happen sooner or later and considering all the money we'd spent on enough medicine to stock a small country hospital it would have been a shame not to have used some of it.

About 3am yesterday morning I was awoken by a rumbling which heralded the inevitable and this despite us being so careful and so aware of the risks of picking up a bug. We'd survived for 10 days without any problems in Darjeeling but I reckon it was our transit through Delhi that precipitated Delhi Belly.

Anyway, what would a trip to India be without a touch of the runs... and not the type they get in the Bangalore Cricket Ground which is just across the way from our hotel. Anyway, a day in bed and a bit of rest can't go astray and I'm feeling much better. Ian on the other hand is shoveling Indian food in as fast as they can serve it!

Hi Chiara and Joel... Glad you got a glimpse of those elusive mountains. You'll have to send us the pics. I'm on the mend and fortunately it was only a 24 hour thing (I hope!) We're off to Puttaparthi tomorrow and a few days there then Ian is off to Igapuri for his incarceration :)
Hope you guys have a great time here and do stay in touch. Stay Safe.

Dave
