Well, it had to happen i guess....
I spent the whole of yesterday in my room at the guesthouse venturing only as far as the toilet....yep...the Delhi Belly had struck! Sparing you the gory details i've gone through 5 litres of water in the last day and a half to flush out my system. On the plus side this time i was almost ready for it this time as id brought pills for diaorrhea and rehydration salts. So i got to watch the repeat of the Arsenal Vs Sunderland match and Blackpool Vs Chelsea (the last 10 mins were cracking!).
\
Anyhow, today i'm slightly more with it. I managed a little tea and toast for breakfast and so far its stayed down but i don't suppose i'll be able to manage anything more exciting...which is a bit crappy as we're supposed to be having dinner with Tsering and her husband tonight. (Tsering is the English teacher at Geden Choling). Guess it'll be plain rice or soup for me!
Have taken this morning really slowly, and have been for a wander around town with Diane. Popped in to see Chigmey and Dolma at the shop down the street. Apparently Dolma thinks i look like an actor and has taken to calling me Tom Cruise! (Doesn't she know i'm taller? ;-) )
Tomorrow is the Tibetan Uprising Day and everyone is heading down to the Dalai Lama Temple for the speeches, singing and dancing followed by a march through town. It's going to be manic, the Tibetans will all be out in traditional dress and are closing their shops for the day and its noticeable that there's been an increase in the number of westerners here.
