As we had to get a move on now we planned to stay only a day and a half in Jodhpur. There isn't a huge amount to do here apart from to visit the fort (yet another) and palace (yet another). We unfortunately both arrived with sore tummies (again) so we weren't feeling great anyway. So the first half day was spent mostly lying down and trying to find some food that wouldn't make us worse. The full day we had we went up to the fort. It was an extremely hot day and very tiring wandering around trying to follow the at times ill mapped audio guide. I did get some nice shots from up here over the blue city which is what I was hoping for. Tom was unfortunately feeling worse so we headed home. We weren't captivated by Jodhpur. Maybe if we had a few more days here and didn't have dodgy tummies we could have explored further. I also managed to successfully slip on the bathroom floor and hurt my foot. Seemingly things in Jodhpur didn't go well for us! It was also very chaotic where we stayed making it hard to get around and added to our difficulties. We were glad to move on, I guess you can't win them all.

Chris Hi Guys. Totally relate to the temple/fort/church fatigue thing. When we were on one of our trips Rosie has been known to exclaim in a Church (I don't want to go to any more f**king churches!!). Only so much you can see. We also got into a habit of 'Afternoon Chill out Time' which is when no matter how much we hadn't been doing, we made sure at 5pm we had an hour to sit and do nothing and drink a beer. Your photos look great, and you'll be happy to know it is still very much winter here, freezing at nights and Some of the country stil getting bombed with snow. Crying out for some heat! Take it easy x
hannahandtom I can't believe Rosie would say such a thing! :) I think we've both been given sympathy colds for all you guys back in the UK as we've been feeling poorly and run down since we've got to Nepal. We shall also be seeing snow soon though as we're trekking up into the Himalayas next week, 5500 metres! Been recuperating with some down time in Nepal as its much more relaxed than India - and beer is much more plentiful too!! Big love to you all. Tom x
