Ranthambore, 12/16

Miles travelled: 24810

It's COLD! We left at 6am for a game drive through the national park, trying to get a glimpse of a Bengal tiger. In an open-top truck, it was way cold -- probably in the upper 30s. (We heard that last Monday in Delhi was the coldest it's been there in six years.) We saw antelope, jackals, lots of birds and monkeys, but no tigers. Well, Nathan *thought* he might have seen something striped, but we didn't get the driver to stop & check it out. So, no tiger sighting. We also got a chance to explore the Ranthambore fort, which is in a majestic location on the top of a mountain overlooking the park.

Those monkeys have such looooong tails! What would happen if you grabbed one of those tails??? Hmmm... there could be problems :)
