Day 6 - Nothing of Note Happened

23:30
Nothing of any note happened today, and yet - it was a far happier day than yesterday.I slept fitfully through the night, waking on many occasions to run to the toilet. I’m variously cold and shivering, and hot and sweaty - pretty standard fever type stuff. I wake for the last time around 11:30, and actually feel pretty rested. The stomach cramps are still there, but less frequent, and less painful. I’d already concluded today would be a day of nothing, and stick to this plan with commitment.

At some point in the afternoon, I wonder whether some food would be a good idea. I definitely feel hungry, but ultimately decide against it. A liquid lunch of the most dull kind for me today.

I doze a couple of times, read quite a bit, and watch a couple of movies. My stomach continues to improve, and is starting to feel pretty hollow. I’m conscious that I’ve really not eaten much since Thursday, and nothing at all in the past 36 hours.

I’m still managing to be sanguine about the experience. It is what it is and so on. A hint of disappointment is starting to creep in. The intended recreation of the latter part of my 2007 trip is really not going brilliantly so far. Hopefully, HOPEFULLY I’ll feel up to a visit to the Taj either tomorrow or Tuesday…

No photos today, for which I hope you'll thank me.Read more
