|
|
| I had a bowl of porridge at the hotel for breakfast.

| In Transit
|
|
|
| Our bus passed a train of camels en route.
| A butterfly landed between N and J.

| Our Room in the Hotel Meghniwas in Jaipur

|
| The following day has pictures of the hotel itself.
| The first in a series of videos touring our large hotel room. Play it
with sound to hear N's narration.
| The tour (continued).
Near the beginning, N makes a comment about my note taking.
| The tour (continued). If you get a little confused about the
layout, don't worry about it. The next video helps alleviate the
confusion a little, but the point of these videos isn't the layout of
the suite--it's about the size of it.

The tour (continued).
The toilet that appears briefly in this movie has a handle which flushes
upward. How odd.
| The final video in the tour.
If you're alert, you'll notice the bathroom has a telephone!

| Restaurant in Hotel Meghniwas
|
|
|
|
|
| The hotel's dining room. It doesn't match the style of the rest of the
hotel.
| Chapati. We had roti and naan with our entrees.
| Cinnamon mint chutney to go with the chapati.
| Paneer pasanda. J and N decided to order it because we
hadn't seen it on a menu elsewhere and they trusted the Punjabis who ran
the hotel to be good with food. The sauce was sweeter than
they expected. (I had no expectations.)

|
| Chili chicken. Spicy, breaded and fried chicken. It reminded me of
Chinese food. We liked it.
| Egg curry. Decent.
| Oddly, our raita had no cucumber.
