• Zip lining in Jodhpur

    20 November 2024, India ⋅ 🌙 24 °C

    This morning we (Eva, Georgia and Matilda plus Deirdre who we met at the hostel last night - another Irish girl from Clare) went up to Mehrangarh Fort and did the zip line tour. Six zip lines all round the fort. It was so much fun. There were falcons flying around us!

    After we were done we headed back to Vijay’s restaurant near the hostel for lunch. And then I headed to the doctor. I got a thorn in my foot in the desert and haven’t been able to get it out. So I google mapped the nearest doctors, wandered over there and was ushered in to his house. He saw me within five minutes and - not wanting to remove it as it was under the skin - gave me prescriptions for antibiotics etc which should break it down in a few days. Popped into the pharmacy with the prescription and was done. From setting out on foot from the hostel I was back within an hour. This is not the NHS. I didn’t get to sit in a waiting room for 12 hours after having to wait three weeks for an appointment. Oh yeah. And I paid the doctor 500 rupees - a fiver.

    Had a nap and headed back to the fort to see the sunset. Very beautiful. 🤩
