Here are some, but, not all photos of my trip. I've actually posted them in reverse order - because I wasn't sure how to do it and now I can't change it. So, the photos way down at the bottom are my first ones (Rishikesh) and these just below are later in the trip. This is actually only the first couple of weeks. I took about 700 photos and am now trying to sort through them. Will post more when I can.

View of the city of Jodhpur, Rajastan from fort. "The blue city, a crazed cubist mass of indigo angles, spreads along the edge of the Great Thar Desert. Jodhpur's fort, Meherangarh, towers over the city, perched on a sheer rocky ridge from where the view over the sea of blue building is mesmerising.  

Meherangarth (Majestic Fort) Jodhpur. Latticed windows.  

The family car. Also referred to as an "iron donkey". Cars are expensive and so this is the mode of travel for many, many people. I was always amazed at the women in saris sitting side saddle. 

If you don't have a car or motorcycle, then take the bus and sit either inside or out.  

My very own tent at the Pushkar Camel Fair. Hot during the day (35 degrees), cold at night (10 degrees).  

Vegetable vendors. Pushkar.

Snake charmers, Jaipur.  

Yours truly at the Taj Mahal, Agra.  

Visiting the Taj Mahal. A place where everyone wears their very best! 

Local boys with parakeet in cage.  

Typical dog - mangy, flea ridden, starving. There are thousand of dogs, everywhere.  

Khajuraho. Yoga anyone?  

Khajuraho. hmm... now what are they doing here?  

Khajuraho has achieved fame for the sensual appeal of the erotic sculptures.  

Khajuraho temples, built between AD 950 and 1050. 22 of the original 85 temples survive.  

Fruit vendor at train station. Very typical scene.
