We are out of bed early after good night’s sleep. Breakfast is as yesterday and head off into the street.

Not so much wind or dust this morning so a pleasant walk towards town. I stop at an internet shop to blog and buy a train ticket for my journey to Jodhpur on Tuesday evening. I sort some mobile phone time as well.

I walk round the road below the fort and take some photos of the local circle and a Spanish tourist takes my photo.

I spend the morning walking all over the fort. These days it’s a commercial centre with all kinds of shops but still a wonder in its own way.

I stop for lunch and have a salt lassi and a masala chat sandwich all very nice.

Then I just stroll all over the old town looking and taking in the sights, Stop for some chai and cake and have a chat to some ladies from New Zealand who are here for 5 months travelling about.

Just a good slow day in India.
