We all woke up early in Bikaner and got a train to Jaisalmer which took approximately 6.5 hours. Taking the train was an interesting event, it was freezing cold and there was a lot of pushing to get your bags in compartments. We arrived in Jaisalmer ready to explore the ancient city. We checked into our hotel (Mahadev Palace, H-3, RICCO, Jethwai Road) which was very comfortable. We had a free day. So we had time to relax around the hotel and stroll into the town...

Today I woke up feeling a lot better, I think it was just an over night bug! Thankfully we took a jeep back to our hotel in Bikiner. We arrived back at the hotel in Bikaner and freshened up before doing a walk into the old town. It was an interesting walk, I still haven’t got used to the fact that cows are strolling through the streets and that there is no form of traffic control. After a half an hour walk, we arrived at the Junagarh Fort, this was a fort bu...

He and his sister lived on the streets in Nepal then moved to the ‘promised city’ of Delhi where it was suppose to be ...

So today I woke up, had a much needed shower and hair wash in a surprisingly hot shower. Once ready, I decided to go out to find some water and food. As soon as I walked out of the door, a well spoken English Indian man pounded on me! He was asking where I was from, what I am doing. So he insisted on taking me to find water. Thankfully it was only round the corner, the market seller was going to give me a pink bottle but the man who took me insisted that wasn’...
