Getting the motor bike registered
was taking much longer than I had hoped, so I am still in Delhi waiting for the
paperwork to get completed. In the papers are articles about the Dengue
outbreak in Delhi. It seems it is worse than usual this year. A very famous
film director died of it the previous day so there was a big uproar. Gurgaon, a
Delhi suburb and the location of more than 1/3 of all the India based call
centers that we all call into on a fairly regular basis, has over 1,000 cases
just in the last week.
It was not until I pulled up the
CDC’s Dengue map http://www.cdc.gov/dengue/travelOutbreaks/index.html
that I saw the southern US has Dengue too.
On Wednesday after being told all
would be ready I wait at the office for a few hours to be told ‘oops the
printer broke… come back tomorrow’.
I come back the next day at the
indicated time and still nothing. But finally around 5:30 everything is
finished and I drive off along with my new little TomTom GPS mapping unit and
find my way back to my room with only one wrong turn.
I am setting off for the
Himalayas in the morning
