Well, it's Friday morning here and Spike is off to Aero India after spending yesterday locked up in the room with me watching movies all day. Yes, even Spike with his strong constitution ended up getting sick, though after taking some gastrostop and gastrolite yesterday, he seems a little better this morning. I'll be here all day again, but hoping that I'll be able to make it out for a short walk or something.
I have to say, after the real grizzle I had in the last post that I wrote, that the guys at the front desk of the hotel here are all lovely, as are the roomservice guys which we've been using a bit lately. We asked for a chemist yesterday to go out and buy some antibiotics (no prescription needed here) and after about a 15 min walk around the block, didn't manage to find one of the many they said were located around here. We did manage to find 3 dispenseries for 'sexual problems', but neither of us were game to go, in assuming they were for viagra only. Spike's already been laughed at for wearing a skirt in Delhi and been giggled at for wearing a traditional Indian top here, so he drew the line at that. So we came back to the hotel empty handed and explained to the guys what happened and immediately they offered to go buy some for us. The 3 tablets ended up costing 56 rupees ($1.80) and we've got them for backup. Neither of us has the severe form, no vomitting, fever etc, so we decided we'd follow our doctors travel advice and see how we go in a few days. If neither of us is better by tomorrow, we'll take the antibiotics then.
Well, he'll be back from breakfast soon to take the laptop with him, so that's really about all there is to say. Sincerely hoping this is the last day I'll be sick and that we'll be out and about soon, continuing our amazing adventure.
