Aussie girls in Jaipur
After a beautiful time in Benaulim, headed off to the Goan airport for my flight to Jaipur. Met Snaz and Gaz at the airport. Flight was great. Jet Airways ROCKS (have i said that in the previous entries? cos they do!). And it's not just because the male air hosts (right terms for them???) are cute as buttons. hehehe In our stopover in Mumbai, the …
Jeeprs Jaypurs, I'm In Jaipur

Happy Holi!
... then throw in Technicolor powder of every possible hue and you have an explosion of Joy. Like we said, you really have to experience this!
We had been told that the celebrations for Holi start early in the morning, with some revelers actually continuing on from the bonfires the night before, so upon exiting the hotel in the morning, we were fully prepared to have dye thrown upon us. No such danger. The neighborhood around our hotel still seemed asleep ...
