Day 21 Incredible India!!


11 September 2009
The journey to Jaipur began at 4 am as planned. The weather was cloudy but soon the sky started to open up with some sunshine. Yippee!!
Next on the list is ChandBaori, an unplanned stop proposed by but definitely a worthwhile stop.
 
This is the same shooting location which they filmed the Hindi Bollywoodmovie . Sorry, I could not remember the title. The dancers will lined up the staircases and danced away.
 

In the vicinity, there was a school session in progress. The teachers were kind enough to invite me in.
 
But in another class, San was asked to give something in return. Ok Ok….this is not a right thing to do for him in front of the school kids.  Oh please!!
Now do we appreciate Kashmir even more.
Upon my arrival in Jaipur, I went to the Amber palace but loitered around at the courtyard.Decided to give the main palace a miss.
 

Touts will harass you again at the palace entry. I am beginning to dislike the Golden triangle now after the non stop harassing for the past 2 days. I am beginning to lose my patience and I am better off falling asleep in this town.
 
Scores of shops lined up the streets selling the same stuff, obviously to cater to the tourists.
My hit rate is decreasing right now, sigh!!  I head back to the hotel for dinner but not before the tuktuk driver lost his way. I packed my stuff for I am leaving India tomorrow after 3 weeks. Turned in at 11pm.
