Here we are on our last day in Rishikesh and I can't say I'm too sad about it. We didn't even get to do one yoga class, just haven't had the energy. Today we have just spent trying to work out how to leave as well as making a trip to the local drug store to get some anti-biotics for John's Delhi belly which has now evidently turned into the Rishikesh Runs. He got a couple of sheets of pills over the counter for 120 rupees.
Yes today was very exciting - we also collected our laundry from the hotel guy, especially interesting as they do all the washing here by hand (even in the house where we stayed, there was a washing machine, but our clothes were passed onto the maid who did them all by hand) I felt very strange yesterday as John said when he handed our dirty, smelly clothes over to the guy at reception, he had to count them all as he sifted through, so he and a small audience got to see my "smalls". Lovely.
Cold a lot better today anyway but the guts still not great so I think I shall not be eating or drinking much tomorrow as we are preparing for a 10 hour bus ride which only has 2 stops along the way....
We're heading to Shimla which is in the Himalayas.

Hiya!
I had a friend who once advised me to take a teaspoon of the local yoghurt to discourage things like delhi belly...( the theory being a little of the local flora introduced into your gut prepares it for more....flora) not sure how well it works, but it seemed to hold things off for me for awhile whist in China! Good luck to you two- i'll grill george about class availability for you in July and report back! ;) Jen
