Hotel feels like a proper hotel hooray! Has hairdryer - not that I use one, bath etc etc.
Pushkar is a bit hectic with lots of white people trying to be Indians and they all look like hippies to me! Good for shopping though. The main feature of Pushkar is the lake which the Hindu's believe was formed from Lord Bhrama dropping a lotus leaf there nad it formed a lake. So its very holy to Hindu's. Its also a great way for them to get money out of tourists by offering them flowers to put on the lake, luckily we were warned about all hte tricks including doin't shake peoples hand as they will have Henna on their hands and when it transfers to your hand they charge you for the privilege. REminded me a bit of Lourdes as people come to bath in the lake.
