Udaipur

We arrived at the city of lakes and palaces yesterday and had a sunset boat ride on Lake Pichola. It's is so beautiful and today we visited the palace and a Hindi temple. At the temple we were invited to sit and clap along with the chanting. The palace also had a display of English crystal and the most gorgeous marble bathroom. This is a tourist area and the shopping is great. In the stores you sip a cup of chai while being shown the merchandise. We have seen some beautiful gardens too. Our hotel is delightful with marble floors and Victorian style fixtures. I will post a picture of the bathroom at the palace (which we used!) and the door to our room.
This afternoon we rode camels. Hope and I went together and were terrified. It was so much fun!
Tomorrow we drive to Pushkar for the camel fair and stay in a tent hotel.
Weather is getting cooler, especially at night.
