PushkarFair!!!!!

Double awesome 2 hour camel ride around town and fair. George preferred biking!! He attracted some fellow enthusiasts. I received many cries of delight and camera clicks from the Indians.

We think the guys in blue are Sikks. They loved posing.

I am in front of hotel--3 stories around a central open courtyard. Very British.

Camel is being groomed.

Shot of crowd is in front of Brahma temple, one of 4 most sacred ones in the country. Guide worst in the world-- someone took pity on us at lake and we wound up having this truly meaningful ceremony where we joined hands, named family members, through our troubles behind us, chanted, and floated our family, s flowers in the lake. We cupped hands and each of our wrists tied with red and yellow string--Mother India's. Colors. Even George admitted it was a moving experience.

Met several India boys looking quite smart in their Scouting uniforms -- no pics as it was by the sacred lake where none are allowed.

Off on plane to Aurangabad tomorrow.
