"Not completely dead, just mostly dead!"

This will perhaps be my last entry from India itself. Here is the list of events/facts/occurences I have neglected to fill you in on.

1. Freda arrived safe and sound and having a trio to travel is great
2. We have visited ancient hindu temples from 500AD carved into rock caves in Badami, Karnataka.
3. We have traversed via foot and bicycle the ancient hindu temple town of Hampi, amidst the boulders of "The Flintstones".
4. We have suffered through a ridiculous series of events on an over night train ride to Hyderabad.
5. We have seen a 17m high Buddha statue on an island in a lake
6. We have visited the zoo and almost been peed on by a rhinocerous (sp?)
7. We have arrived in Delhi in time for Anna to relapse with three day fever and poop spree to be saved once again by her trusty Cipro. (Graham also got a tinge)
8. We depart tomorrow for Agra and the Taj Mahal, then two days in Jaipur before sending Freda on a plane home.
THEN. . . .


Graham and I come home the next day. It is true, your infamous world traveler is exhausted and terribly home sick (and out of money). We have decided a Nepal and Tibet trip is for a later date and that it is time to move forward with our American lives.

I plan on updating this latter portion with pictures and a rounder explanation when I get home. The internet connections have been difficult to find so it's gotten pretty spotty.

That's all for now!

Anna
