Anyone who has kept up with this blog might be wondering why it came to such an abrupt halt on 19th March. We had one further day with Tim and Shelagh in Dubai which was mainly spent packing, although we did manage lunch out at a restaurant on the Jumeirah Beach Walk. By the evening both of us were feeling a little under the weather and, as we had a 5.00 a.m. pick-up for the airport, we had an early night.
The car turned up promptly and everything went very well at the airport and on the flight home, although neither of us did full justice to the on-board catering. At Glasgow our luggage appeared to be last off the plane but we were soon on the road. Back in Linlithgow Alex and Craig were there to welcome us home.
The final outcome was that D felt unwell enough to visit the doctor on Tuesday and, after submitting a sample, was diagnosed as being infected by the Giardia parasite. This is now being treated with a drastic regime of 500mg antibiotic tablets and strictly no alcohol :-(. We are now waiting for R's test results.
Do not let this minor setback put you off visiting India. We had a tremendous time. There is so much to see, do and experience.
