A short drive from the monkey temple to Jaipur and straight to the hotel. We had a full day planned for Monday 4th, so room service and early night for all. The next morning Asnish collected us and we headed straight for Hawa Mahal (The Palace of the Winds). As you can see the fog had gone and it was really warm with blue skies. Then we headed to the Jantar Mantar observatory and then onto the City Palace. We lunched at LMB restaurant on Johori Bazar and spotted Russell Brand coming in as we were leaving. No sign of Katy Perry though. Liam made Elaine go back in to get his photo, but he'd disappeared.
Rather than stalk him around the Pink City for the remainder of the day, we headed up in the hills to the Amber Fort. As Liam noted, they have a lot of forts in India.
There was a huge dead pig in the road. On the way back into town, we passed the Jal Mahal on Man Sagar Lake.
We almost went to see a Bollywood comedy at the big movie theatre in town but didn't. We headed back to the hotel and then out again for some strolling around the Bazar in the old city. Off to Amritsar tomorrow, although we just discovered that there are no direct flights and we have to go via Delhi, adding 3 and 3/4 hours to the journey.
I met Katy Perry last year in Vegas (at the Pink Taco no less - only the best Mexican food in Vegas...you guys may have eaten there). She's prettier in person. Younger looking too.
ReplyDeleteNot as cool as trekking around India, but it's all I have.
