In December when trip planning began, I was supposed to head to India for a little over four weeks and Manila for two. After arriving in India, plans got changed and the trip was shorted to three weeks and I began my whirlwind tour of Delhi (Gurgaon too), Mumbai, Pune and Bangalore. This change in the India schedule meant that my trip to the Philippines was being lengthened to three weeks.

Last night, my Manila trip was shorted to a week and I was supposed to be heading home.

This morning I woke up to discover that Manila is still a shorter trip (in Sunday, out Friday), but now I’m returning to B’lore for a week before catching a flight back to Canada.

Working 14 hours days and trying to do as much touring of the cities I visit (I still need to post the B’lore stuff, I know) means that I barely know what day it is – here or back home. What’s running through my head right now you ask? Why, it’s that old Spirit of the West song “Home for a Rest”.

You’ll have to excuse me,
I’m not at my best
I’ve been gone for a month
I’ve been drunk since I left
These so called vacations will soon be my death
I’m so sick from the drink I need home for a rest

Ok, I haven’t been drunk at all since I got here, but a breakfast of beer at Dencios is really sounding good right now.
