Friday, November 23, 2007

With a population of over a billion people this is truely the busiest place that we have ever been. A little to our surprise, we love it!!

We spent a day in Mumbai and then caught an overnight train to Jaipur in Rajasthan. We booked a first class sleeper ticket and where amazed to find ourselves to our own compartment. Travelling in style!!

Rajesthan is a region of colourful turbans and saris and big moustaches, camels, elephants sharing space on the roads and cows everywhere.
Jaipur is a city with a population of 1 million people and has cured me of being a nervous passenger.
