Another thought - a Nitro express two or three week tour of the Corbett hunting grounds, homes etc?

Excellent idea. I do want to go back to India and visit the Corbett sites. One just needs people to pony up and commit paying deposits for any group trip. I am not planning any trips for a while. Airfares ridiculous. Too risky for unreliable airlines. Jabs required? Etc. But in a year or two or three?

India as a destination is as NE Member Mehul described "equally fascinating and frustrating".

Wonderful interesting history, magnificent buildings, castles, forts, city walls, temples, mauseleums. Fantastic historical movies could be made. The parks have great populations of game. Game tours are lesser in standard to Africa. Good hotels and accomodation. Great food. If you don't like indian food don't come! If you want it street cheap, prepare for serious diahorrea. I survived until almost the end. But in the last tiger park had to exit the vehicle for a bush twice. Caught the stomach bug in a Western 5 star the restaurant in Agra. Travel by train. Long time hire car with a driver is easy. Great souvenirs. We bought jewels for the wife. Carpets for the floor, silk, cashmere, wool. Silk bedspreads and more.

Would be great to visit Corbett's haunts, Corbett National Park. And some other parks and sights.

Maybe Kipling sites as well?

A good itinery might be gleaned from some of the places the Rigby guys travelled.

Something to think about for maybe two or three years time.
