so..
one week later..we have crammed a LOT into a small space of time..
we missed our booked up bus ticket to agra, which we had organised in advance..bus left at 6 in the morning and we were still snoozin at 9 as erin turned the alarm off in her sleep...so we had a massive mission on local buses and just managed to get to agra..we were pretty proud of our travelling skills...backpacks in the midday heat.
then it was the taj mahal...more amazing than we could have ever  expected. you just need to see our mental photos.. apart from that agra is abit rubbish went to the red fort too...we got a little over heated..42 degrees..ahh
then jaipur and our first stop in rajastan..
kirsty had a savage fever and spent the first couple of days in bed..but erin went to a monkey temple and had some chai with a rickshaw driver.. got bored on her own without kirsty dancing round her all the time.. we went upto tiger fort to see the whole of jaipur at sunset and lit up at night time..its wedding season at the moment so there were loads of houses covered in crazy lights..next day we got to shop like princesses..erin brought a bedspread...kirsty got a wierd bit of material...erins was far more practical.
thennnn..to lake pushkar. which is the most beautiful place on our tour so far..the whole town is a blur of colour and surrounds a holy lake..that was said to appear when brahma dropped a lotus..(kirsty has been doing her research).. its a lovely place to just chill out..thinking..listening..eating falafel. some gypsys also henna-ed our hands..we couldnt say no...it looks abit rubbish.
next stop udaipur... we leave tonight on an overnight bus x
happy birthday erins mumma x
