• Old Jaipur and dinner

    April 15 in India ⋅ ☀️ 38 °C

    Some of the group were going straight back to the hotel. Fiona, Kathy, and I got dropped off in the old city, so we could have a look around the markets. It was pushing 40 degrees, so we didn't stay long. Fiona bought some bangles, Kathy got some handkerchiefs, and I bought several 25cm lengths of cotton fabric for 50 rupees (about 40p) each. We then went for a cooling drink. My strawberry lassi was bright pink, extremely sweet, and tasted of chemicals. Yuk!

    We then took an Uber back to the hotel. Kathy went straight to her room, while Fiona and I went across the road to the Bluez Café for a decent drink. I had an iced Americano and some vanilla ice-cream. Back in the hotel, I tried to get some posts done while Fiona slept.

    Later, some of the group were meeting for dinner in the hotel. We decided to go back to the Bluez with Kathy. We had a lovely evening.
