Day 3 - Jaipur - India

Day 3 - Jaipur, India
We explored a little more of Delhi before a six hour drive to Jaipur which was an intense experience. Went for a walk to the markets of the Pink City despite its colour being more terracotta. This is the capital of Rajasthan. Plenty of monkeys, pigs, cows and camels. There are lots of kites being flown from rooftops which offer a form of serenity from the chaos below. Then it was tuktuks to Raj Mandir Cinema - an art deco theatre to watch a newly released Bollywood film. Although not in English it wasn't difficult to get the gist. The movie goers provided equal entertainment with their cheering, whistling, yelling out and clapping during certain scenes. They really get into it. We'll explore more of this effervescent city tomorrow. Happy father's day to all the Aussie dads.
