Kinky Khajuraho!

We decided that rather than a 15 hour bumpy bus ride to the next place we wanted to visit we would take a flight. Our first impressions of Khajuraho were not good! We had booked a hotel and airport pickup from our previous hotel and whilst there was a man to pick us up a massive argument amongst taxi drivers broke out with us in the middle. Apparantly the driver who was picking us up did not belong to the taxi drivers union. We sought help from a policeman who said we had to go with the union...

... amongst Indians. We hate having to defend Australians because of the actions of a very small group of idiot fools. First question to us is always about cricket or Ricky Pointing then they ask us why Australians don't like Indians and ask us why the students are being attacked. How do we answer that? We are embarassed by this ridiculous, horrendous behaviour going on in our home country and it is terrible for the India and Australia relationship which has always been very good in the ...

Temples, tombs and opulence!

... side of an open courtyard, with covered walkways and some other buildings around the 3 remaining sides. I was introduced to the bride-to-be - a beautiful 16yr old girl who'd finished her schooling quite recently. Having lost her mother as a child, her sisters and friends were getting her ready (bathing, clothing, make-up, jewellery etc). They were a lovely group and all the ladies and children were very excited that I was at their wedding. They all wanted their ...

Drive to Agra from Khajuraho

... with your hand luggage thru a metal detector. We learned that we had to pass this exam each time we entered the hotel. The Jaypee is very luxurious, but not our style-very snobbish. We wandered around the grounds and looked at the pool which was very nice, but a little too formal. At least the main restaurant looked good, so later on we had a good dinner and then walked around some more before heading to bed Tomorrow morning at 6AM-the Taj Mahal!!

Road to Khajuraho

... pass a slow car in your lane, your passing lane is blocked by one, or several, tractors heading towards you on your side of the divider. It is also important to keep a careful eye out for livestock. Since most cattle and goats run about freely, they cross the highway at will, or simply lay down on the road to take a rest. The care of the drivers is evident by the fact that we have seen almost no dead animals, livestock or ...

... on the river bank and stack many logs up and place the body on top and light the body on fire Darth Vader style. I can honestly say that I have never seen anything like this in my life. We happened to arrive just as a ceremony was starting and the body still needed to be placed on the wood. Once placed, the brothers walked around the body three times before adding dust (I can't remember what it was) and the oil (ghee) and then placed it on fire. Since this man's father ...

Son moral avait encore changé et il a voulu mettre son sac dans notre chambre avant d epartir vers 13h pour la jungle. Du coup nous n'avons pas fait les temples ouest car nous ne voulions pas nous presser et sortir pour lui ouvrir la ...
