Although there is only 180km between Pushkar and Jaipur, the roads are filled with trucks carrying marble. You will see literally hundreds of shops with 40 or so huge 10ft x 5ft slabs of marble outside them. Marble here is dirt cheap! 5.5hrs later, we're in Jaipur.
Sonia Ghandi was visiting Jaipur today and the roads were packed with people going to the gathering and people trying to get away from it. I couldn't imagine anybody making this much effort for Tony Blair, let alone IDS!
Checked into the Hotel Maurya. Nice hotel in the centre wth swimming pool! Left my bags and headed for the city museum which was closed. Then headed for a shop where I bought Loi some goodies. Hope ya like 'em babe!
Really, really miss the Simpsons and Futurama.....
