Good News!
We are healthy once again and have been for about 10 days now (about the length of time we've been without internet). My tummy bug lasted a few days and wiped me out pretty completely -- I don't recommend it as a diet plan, but if you ever need to lose weight quickly it certainly was effective at that. Fortunately, Leen took very good care of me and force fed me medicine, liquids, and what little food I could keep down so that I made a pretty speedy recovery.
Aside from the vomiting, weakness, and altogether too frequent trips to the bathroom (sorry for the details), the most unpleasant part of being sick was the traditional, Indian-style drop toilet that I had the "pleasure" of using. We actually climbed up to the Amber Fort again just to use the clean, pay-as-you-go, western-style toilets. At 5 Rupees a pop, I'd say it was well worth the price!
We've been in Dundlod (in Rajasthan) for about eight days and eating very well here, so no worries -- I no longer look or feel ill! We'll update more about what we're doing here (mostly playing with horses) in another post, but want everyone to know that we're both happy and healthy once again!

Very glad you're both healthy again, being sick in strange circumstances is never any fun.
