To India and Beyond
Hello Everyone
Well, after three days of terrible sea sickness, on a boat with 727 indians and being woken up with the noises of hocking and retching at about 5.30am, we're here in the Andaman Islands.
It's absolutely beautiful here, idyllic! We've had a nice dinner of lemon rice and huge grilled tiger prawns tonight (for about 3.50, including beer) and I've bought some of the most effective travel sickness pills I've ever tried ready for the two-hour, speed boat trip over to Havelock Island tomorrow morning at 6am. Can't wait to get there, I think it'll be like Paradise.
I'm in Port Blair at the moment, which is absolutely lovely. So nice infact, that I'm loathed to return to mainland India. Unfortunately, you can only get a visitors permit for 30 days and I'm not suprised because it's a pretty special place.
Must say, this time round, I'm enjoying it so much more. Been getting lots of Christmas e-mails from you all and it seems strange that it's so close when I'm sat here sweating my bits off!!!
Don't think I'll be able to email again before Christmas, since we'll probably be on Havelock Island which doesn't have any internet. So I hope you all have the happiest of holidays and new year.
Love to you all.
