... was, by American standards, very poor. Mother cooked from a small clay stove ,sitting on the floor, using as fuel, cow chips she had gathered from her small farm yard. Meals were mostly chapatis and lentils. Chicken was on the menu if guests like us were willing to pay the extra dollar to buy it.but I watched the playful bantering of the father and mother, and the cheerful play of the ...
Jaipur--Parties and Palaces
... Delta flight again!
I took a small nap, and then met up with our group and guide for our outing of the night---a Bollywood movie! We all hopped in the requisite tuk-tuks for transport over to the theater, and as I rode there I asked my guide what movie we were going to see, and apparently it was a HUGE blockbuster film, called “Rowdy Rancooon” (I believe the spelling is right on that, although I could be wrong).

Once this is sorted, the driver takes us right to it, down the side passage we used to get to the City Palace.
