Amazing pics - so many - its taken me an hour to view them all! Lovely to get a good feel for all you are experiencing - but you look so pale! Glad you settled for snorkelling and didn't risk diving. I'd be terrified more of monkeys hanging off my arm than diving! You appear very calm and at home with the monkeys. The elephants look like baby elephants. What fun. Keep eating lots of good fresh food - try some red meat too for your paleness. You need some iron it appears to me! Enjoy the remaining days and ward off cheeky Japanese etc. So glad you will head for Cairns sooner rather tahn later.
Take care.

Lovely to hear latest news. Glad India was so rich an experience. Hope your insides recover in Thailand you must be skin and bones. So you must have had no sleep then prior to your dawn flight to Bangkok? Dear me. We awake to Good Friday - so most of my day will be spent in church and most of my last night was also spent in church! Thinking of you. Sue Stewart is leading one service tonight at her church - its an ecumenical service so I shall go to support her though after our own 3 hours service I shall be pooped. Got one more sermon to write then few days off next week. Weather here has crept up to 18 C yesteday. Glorious - but nothing compared to Mumbai! Take care and enjoy a different culture that Thailand must be.
lots of love

Ems! Thanks so much for brightening up my days with your travel updates. It all looks amazing! I can't wait to catch up with you when you are back in the UK and hear all about it. I miss you! I have noticed that you have put the blue scarf to good use - at least I think that's what you're wearing to Fiona's B'day? Right, stay healthy, drink lots of water and take plenty of more pics. Sending love, Sophie XXX

Hi Emma!
Ali has been keeping us well informed about your exploits and I used to drop into your blog from time to time for the detail. I guess now that Ali is in foreign parts I shall have to drop into your blog much more regularly. I do so enjoy reading about your activities but sorry about health problems etc. Your really excellent journalism is a pleasure to read - backed up, of course, by your Mum's "corrections"! Your experience is so valuable to bring home to us all just how lucky we are to have our life and facilities in the UK even though we complain bitterly about them sometimes. I know you will keep positive and hope you enjoy the rest opf your trip. Take Care. Ali's Dad.

Hey Em
I'm overwhelmed by all the amazing experiences you're having in India! I can't imagine how different it must be to England. I'm sorry to hear about your hospital experience and I hope you're all fixed up now. Take care and thanks for all the updates.

Hi, Emma! You're so sweet in your entries and photos! I haven't seen you in ages, but you are looking good, woman! You look and sound happy. I don't know how long I've been receiving your travel updates, but I must have thought it was junk mail and ignored it. Hehe. Thanks so much for sharing your experiences with all of us - I love it. I rated your entries 5 stars. Wanted to give you a big hug when I saw the hospital photo. Oh, Emma. Stay healthy! Until next time... Much love always, Liz xxx

Hey Em
Thanks for the updates I'm really enjoying the series - I am tempted, though, on one of these occasions to vote at the bottom "NO, I didn't enjoying reading this" for a laugh but I'm scared they'll block me or something.. hehe. Really glad to hear things have picked up - I've heard of Delly Belly but u sound like u were a bit beyond that!!!
The good news my end is I'm off to Brazil on Thur for 2 weeks.. can't wait now, though haven't really given it much thought as been flat out with life in Bristol - now absolutely loving it, not sure if I'll ever leave!! (sod London)
Keep in touch over this and facebook and good luck with it all,
