Incredible, Inedible !ndia

After an exhausting, enthralling day at the Ellora caves I suffered my first bout of food poisoning in India. I knew it would come sooner or later. In fact, as I was eating the chana masala at the canteen in Ellora I was fairly certain it would make me sick. Luckily, I managed to stave off being sick until I was back in my room at the formidable Crown Plaza. After spending all day yesterday being ill and sleeping, this morning I was finally up to leaving the dank room.

Last night I had an incredible dream though. I dreamed that it was Halloween and I was dressing up like Hunter S. Thompson. I was getting ready at Libby's house, and her and Greg just lived down the street from Mum and Dad. Katy and Nate came over, and Katy helped me fix up my costume so that I was now Beetlejuice. The party was at Nate and Katy's place so Claire, Simon, Katy, Nate and I all left to go their place. We had to fly to get there, so we jumped in a plane. The pilot was a super funny guy and he took us on a bit of a tour. We were flying low and there was this scout camp exhibit. It was some strange fair where everyone was dressed up like old fashioned peasants. They were training for some shows and practicing throwing darts and daggers into apples perched atop of ladies' heads. We decided to crash the fun and the pilot landed, more like crashed the plane. Nate, Katy, Simon, Claire and the pilot got dressed up and performed a silly show while I went through the crowd encouraging people to clap along to the music. When the show was over it was clear that the people were not so impressed with the performance, or the destruction of their fortress-like gate. Luckily, there were enough cars in the plane for us all to jump in one, and I had a little red sporty car, which looked like it belonged to Savary as it had plants growing in the back seat. We all sped off to the party.

It was an awesome dream. Super fun and I was so happy to be with my loved ones.

Well, I have to figure out what my plans are now. This day of sickness and now today, which is still a day to recover, have thrown off my original ideas. I have to start considering what plan B is...
