Udipur, India - 1st- 3rd November 2011

From Jodphur it was a horrible 8 hour drive to our next destination Udipur. Not only was it long it was rough! The roads were nothing more than dusty tracks not a bit of tarmac in sight. With the little car that we were in it was not the best of combinations. Poor Dave still wasn't right and was sleeping in the back but every time we hit a big bump i would look to see him wedged between the chairs.

When we finally arrived at our hotel we were starving luckily the hotel had a roof top restaurant which had a magnificent view over the lakes and the beautiful Udipur Palace. We had some western treats including chips and a jacket potato yummy!

Unfortunately the hotel wasn't what it seemed and we woke up covered in ants! We phoned our travel agent and we were swiftly moved to another hotel which was much better and had very comfortable beds!

We spent the day strolling around looking in the various tourist shops and buying odds and ends. The move with the hotels took up a lot of our time as even though it was just a couple of streets away from our original hotel the one way system meant a tricky half hour drive to reach it!

But we made the most of the time we had left. We also found a great cafe that sold beans on toast! Dave was in Heaven!

It seemed as just as we arrived it was time to leave again!

Next Stop Jaipur....
