Place holder for India. We uploaded our pictures to clear our memory cards and still need to get them back. Below, we do have a few form Jaisalmer and Jodhpur.
We really loved Jaisalmer in western Rajastan, near the Pakastani border. Fort Rajwada, our hotel, was probably the most beautiful we stayed at in India. But most importantly, the people in Jaisalmer were extremely kind. Our guide at the fort, was a Brahmin who actually lived in the fort for many generations. Our camel safari guide was a very kind man who loved the dessert. We had a very enjoyable experience thanks to the people we met.
Jodhpur is called the blue city. They paint many of the homes with Indigo paint to keep the buildings cool and the mosquitos away. Their fort was probably the most impressive because you could tour many of the private palace rooms. We were also able to tour the villages and see village life. Our hotel was called a "heritage hotel" meaning it was done up kind of Disney style to look like a British camp. Since we didn't have four walls, it was quite noisy on Diwali!
We got a quick view of Jaipur after our flight back to Delhi was canceled!
