Delhi Belly (not me!) And on to Nainital

Fred has Delhi belly, ironically, in Delhi! But breakfast is staying put and we are off on a long road trip to Nainital.

We traveled on divided highways, but with so much construction, half the time the other side is closed. We were making good time until we got stuck behind a slow moving vehicle. A horse drawn cart. On an interstate. Sigh. At least it was headed in the correct direction. That cannot be taken for granted.

It took nearly 12 hrs to reach our hotel in Nainital, and this time we got up the final hill without blowing the transmission. YAY! We can see our breath, way up the hill overlooking the lake made from one of Sita's tears. I have no doubt that this was my home in a previous life. My spirit soars here. It feels so familiar. And I can breathe for the first time in a week.

The mountain air is so clean. Heaven sent. AND CELL COVERAGE!
At least for tonight. Tomorrow higher into the hills.
