Blue City

The Mehrangarh Fort & The Umaid Bhawan Palace at Jodhpur are both absolutely delightful to explore.

We stayed at The Ummeid. Not a place I would strongly reccomend. The rooms had a damp smell. However the property as such is not bad looking et all.

Jodhpur - Where the pants are from!

April 28, 2007 Jodhpur, India Yes, this is where jodhpur pants are from. The city was famous for its polo matches, and I guess they invented the balloon-y pants. We did see people wearing them! First stop was a crematorium (where the Marahajas and family were cremated and tombs placed on top of the sites. Guide told about Hindu cremations. Cremation used because it delivers the person back to the 5 elements: Fire - burning the body Earth - ashes of the body fall to earth Water - some ashes ha...

... with the night bus, big mistake. The sleeper bus was cosy as we had a double sleeper but it was so bumpy it was impossible to get any sleep and made Em a hundred time worse! Em was back to being sick and on the toilet every stop into the morning - nice. <br> <br>Jodhpur is a cool city, not an amazing amount to do but a lot more relaxed than Jaipur and the people were a lot nicer. The fort made it totally worth while coming here though and the guest house was brilliant.

Blue city Blues.

... I saw a few families who lived in the desert... its amazing that people are so good at living out there. One group (the Bishnois) are militant conversationalists. 500 years ago (give or take some years) some 300 villagers were willing to die rather than watch a tree get cut down. Hard core. some 95% of the endangered Back Buck deer live near Bishnoi villages... we saw quite a few. <br> <br>

Dera Eco - Osian

... camera. Not sure it was the airport x-ray, the colors all look washed out. They were a big extended family from various parts of India that have come together here at this Osian temple to pray. It was pretty crowded and some vigirous singing and crowd around the inner altar. There was a young girl Isah? That was pushed out of the instant picture her uncle wanted ...

Holed up in Jodphur

... So we were cut off from the world for the next two days. Then I lay down for a nap and I woke up and there were some baby goats so I went to play with them. I put my camera down in the sand for a second, but when I picked it back up I think I had gotten some sand in it because the lens would not go back out once i had turned it on again. So no more camera for the next two weeks. I'll use my dad's camera and try to post from there. And I'll ...

India Part 8: Jodhpur

... where we had come from). Their next destination was Jaisalmer the next day (hang on.....us too!) we tried to shake them off but it just didn't work. They sent a driver to our guest house and invited us over to the Hotel for dinner. But we turned it down. We keep our fans at arms length. Otherwise it just gets messy....and complicated......(David: You're making this up aren't you? They didn't send a driver, they came in person and we told them where to ...

On the road from Jaisalmer to Jodhpur

... a community school (government funded) built of natural materials and simply designed, which accepts children from surrounding villages, even 10 or so kms away. The Principal didn't mind us interrupting their classes (the teachers were teaching various English subjects at the time) and when we told them we were from Australia, some giggled, some smiled shyly, and we talked of kangaroos and the cricket (most popular sport ...
