we then took a train to bengalore(didn't stay as trying to avoid cities) and then onto mysore where we got sick again this time king i think a residual from hampi though it was just temperature and lethargy with king...
saw the museum and art gallery, the mysore palace which was awesome and then got sick as above and king and i spent the rest of our time in the hotel with jon and xav coming and going with supplies and recouperated.
at this point i just wanted to come home was sick and just wanted my mum to look after me...and the boys... but nevermind we mad eit through and area ll better now and loving it again.
we then caught a bus to calicut and a train to cochi...we hired a tuk tuk today hwho showed us all thr touristy attractions for 100 ruppees approx 3 $ so now we'll just relax and hang out here for a few days.. we're nearly down the very south so once we hit the bottom we'll start heading up along the east coast.
we're going on a cruise on the boats tomorrow on the kerrala backwaters.... and staying at a really nice place the best we've had in india with our first hot shower since being here...hooray...
today is Krishna's birthday and apparently this was one of his birthplaces... im not sure how many times he was born? but we were here for the celbrations saw all the kids dressed up and the procession as we were follwing we soon became part of the parade and people gave us peacock feathers and celbratory crowns for the kids as we made our way along.
we are here we are fine and we are safe AND ... we are no longer sick and loving it.
LOVE THE BOYS AND BANKSIA

ReplyDeleteHello again, glad the ill tidings are of the diminishing type ,,if it's any consolation babies get sick in australia too with many little relatives also taking the anti- biotics from preschool encounters. I wish I was watching the cricket with you guys Indians are so passionate about cricket,... you should have bought them a ball but it would have spoilt the moment .... Your travels sound so exciting tuk tuks motorbikes parades and temples pop new a lot about mysore and the start of the indian fight for independence ...shitty sleeping bags (to much information ) .. take the time to relax in luxury for a while ( hot showers ) clean shiits /sheets..by the time you get home with mums new minimalism and de cluttering we'll be sitting on boxes singing to each other for entertainment eating fruit living a simpler life...enjoy your journey and keep sharing...love dad and pop... more photos ...also line up a skype I'll send information to Jons' email
