All Temple'd Out!


Tuesday 24th January


We started our day with the Monkey Temple - lots and lots of monkeys everywhere! The baby ones were so cute! We fed them nuts and one grabbed one out of my hand - he was abit greedy!





We then went for lunch and emily was very hungry and had 2 cheese toasties - they bought it out to her on two seperate plates too and looked at her so funny when she put them both in front of her! 


We had really seen everything in Jaipur by now so Emily went back to the hotel to read her kindle and i went out with Ravi to check out the theatre for the evening! He also showed me 4 of the gates of the Pink City which was pretty cool! 


At 5pm we left and climbed to sunset point which was absolutely stunning and had views all over Jaipur! We got harrassed by little kids on the way too who seemed cute but in the end just started shouting "GIVE ME RUPEE!"...spoilt brats. 




Ravi has been going on about us going to see a movie so off we went in the evening...the movie theatre was amazing! We treated Ravi to a night out and got the popcorn and drinks in (about 40p each amazing!) We went to see the movie Don 2, the only movie actually being played there...its pretty much indias version of James Bond but hilarious and cheesy! It was probably one of the funniest movies i have ever seen and could not stop laughing because it was so stupid! It was all in Hindi too and me and Em managed to understand the whole thing! One thing that we found hilarious was that at the cinema they even had an intermission half way through (This was when the locals just stopped and stared at us - dont think two white girls is a common thing for them there) A kid fell over coming back to his seat and Emily and Ravi could not stop laughing - no wonder the locals dont like tourists!



This was our last day in Jaipur and it has definitely been our highlight of our trip - we love jaipur! Its so much more peaceful than Delhi and Agra and not everyone is after your money, apart from the kids! We have probably seen enough temples to last us a lifetime though! Tomorrow we have a full day drive back to Delhi to spend our last two nights in India. Ravi is determined to make us like Delhi so watch this space!
