Hi all! Have to make this quick as I have 30 minutes to shower, dress and pack for a 6-7 hour car drive with a barely English speaking guide to Agra where the Taj Mahal is.
Yesterday we toured more in Jaipur and made friends with our guide who is a very wealthy man. Ended up having dinner at his gorgeous home. Dinner was made by his house boy and it was the best meal to date.
We also had the chance to visit with more village people and were invited into their homes. They even brought up a 20 day old baby for me to hold and take pictures with. You can view all the images here.
In the village we saw the indian child version of Brett. Both UR and I thought it looked like him. So we had to exploit him and take pictures with him. Hee hee.
Here is a great picture of the crowds of people that surround UR when he gives out polaroids and he is handing the picture to someone way up high.
And last, we had a fun elephant ride up to the Amber Fort!
Bye!

Dear Tammy,
Its wonderful to read from a non Indian perspective. When I visit India, it is so much a part of me that I don't think outside of me!!! Totally enjoy reading your exploits, keep it comming.

i've never been to india and your stories from each destination stirred a huge curiousity and excitement in me. now i want to see it for myself, too - and be overwhelmed by the rich culture! by the way i love your picture with the kids and the "brett" kid.
