Deciding to tour India was a rather simple decision for me. I required major dental work following the failure of several (more) teeth. The price to get this work done in Australia required the sale of 2 kidneys, a liver and my @$$ down in St Kilda. Could only find buyers for the kidneys and liver so Australian services were off the table. After reasonably detailed research, I decided on Dentzz, in Mumbai, India as the company to renovate my mouth. A huge job as anyone who knows me will attest.
There was originally to be a 3 month window between installation of the implants and installation of the teeth, with temporary falsies fitted to cover the gap. Question was pay 2 airfares to come home in the interim or tour? I didn’t have to pull a frontal lobe working that out! Sadly (or happily, depending how you see it), complications in the bone blew this gap from 3 to 6 months. Well, what to do? Head home and come back or just say #@%k It, looks like India gets a more thorough inspection!
Dunno, quite how this works but I jetted off as per the pic below but arrived at the shipping dock;


Flight was great, recommend Sri Lankan airlines to all.
So here’s where the trip really starts. To keep reasonably digestible pages, I’ll break this up into adventure by adventure.
