The Razzle Dazzle of Jaisalmer

Known as the Golden City, Jaisalmer is very sandy! Sand being gold..ish in colour, and you've got your treasured title!

Best thing in Jaisalmer..... had to be the 'Trotters Independent Travelers' stand with the leader 'DelBoy' selling Camel trips to travelers/holidaymakers. We had the decision to do either a full robust Camel trek which would be a minimum of 2 days and 1 night, or.. for the more skeptical (Camels spit, fart and may hurt the buttocks) a romantic Sunset Safari. It being our first time, we chose the latter and good thing too as being British we brought with us the overcast clouds and a little touch of drizzle, so the Very Romantic Sunset was covered by fine Grey Cloud, a little like the weather at home! 😊
Camel Trekking to the start of the dunes was quite nice an experience, though much higher than i had first thought it would be!

Second Best thing was that we found real Pizza! A welcome break after curry 24/7.

India is Very Cool and a great experience so far.. very different from home which makes me love the UK more each day. Only 1 week left in India but the expensive booze is making us look forward to moving on to South East Asia next week.
We are taking a photo of our mascot 'Marmite Paddington' in every location around our trip (add him on facebook.. 'love paddington travels') so he is excited about the Taj in Agra in a few days!

Hope you enjoy the snaps... I'll have to upload a few specials to get Tom back for the flattering sleeping ones of me!

Hi guys, we're glad you're having a great time the photos look beautiful! Mr Marmite Paddington will be on ratbook within the hour. The weather has been quite sunny here the last few days but still cold. We went to see The Streets on Friday for their good bye tour and got in Saturday lunch time! We both went to bed at 6pm and slept all the way through to Sunday.... usual stuff really! I still haven't got much work so I thought it would be a perfect time to buy a new van! Keep up the good work with the blogging and we hope you carry on having a great time! Love Ads and Nats x
