Jaisalmer

We're in Jaisalmer at the moment and have just completed a 3 day Camel trek in the Thar Desert, which was pretty amazing. Unfortunately we were sleeping under the stars and there was a fairly violent storm on the second night which meant that we woke up the next morning cold, damp and caked in wet sand. Saw practically no one but a couple of villagers and some stray goats (that we caught and milked for Chi) for at least two days which was a relief from everyday India.

We had a good time in Jaipur over Holi and mostly avoided being mugged by gangs, the4 Elephat festival ws alot better and included Elephant polo (which is better than it sounds) and And elephant vs 16 tourists tug of war, which left a spray of tourists with dilated pupils strew over the field.

Then we caught a night bus to Ajmer, which was overbooked so that Henry and I had to sit next to the driver and didn't get alot of sleep. Then to Pushkar for a few days, which was similar to how I imagine Glastonbury to be, Jaislamer, and then Jodhpur, which is nearly entirely a bright blue tinge (which obviously wards off mosquitoes), and is full of street people (people who do nothing but sit talking at the side of the street) and tauts who hassle us constantly.
