At Long Last...Udaipur

After dropping off Denise in New Delhi, Helene and I took a Kingfisher flight down to Udaipur, a wonderful town in Rajasthan. The same fog that had turned a 12 hour train trip between Varanasi and the capital into a 22 hour long one decided to spare us this time, though, and the trip went without a hitch.

We spent 3 days here and managed to get ourselves some more bespoke clothing (myself, a nice super 120s suit and Helene a funky Fall jacket). The touts eventually got on our nerves--as they cannot help but do when you're based one place and they see you walking by ALL THE TIME--but any tension accumulated on this account was blissfully relieved by our next destination, Bundi....
