Namaste.

We are in Ahmedabad after a few days of road trip and my having been laid up in a sick bed for three days. I am now on a course of antibiotics and hope to be mobile again within the next day or so, it is nothing serious, just another upset tum.

There are lots of exciting things to tell you about, but I am going to leave that for when I have the energy to write or for my partner in crime to spill.

As part of our road trip from Ahmedabad we went to Alang. This is a small town where ships from all over the world are dismantled. These include warships, cruise ships, passenger ferries, you name it, if it is metal and floats then they take it apart. I adore anything maritime and the visit to Alang was incredibly exciting. The road leading to dismantling yard is lined with a "flea market" of goods that have been stripped from the ships and you can buy anything that you can imagine that would be onboard - barring warheads etc. :-)

I am just about done with this post - sorry, I will write more detail soon. It was so very exciting that I have to at least give it a wee mention :-) I have heaps of photos, I was really trigger happy taking shots from the back of K's bike.

Until next time comrades.....
