Jaipur in an Autorickshaw- On CLAY Now

Posted on March 3, 2009

Amber Fort Jaipur

I wrote the Jaipur Story (November 2008 with Brat 2, my younger nephew) for CLAY too (the first one was for Gonomad) and it is now up on their site-

Our plan was to hire an autorickshaw (because of this recommendation by Arun) with Gopi as our guide. I called Arun and asked for Gopi’s number and got in touch with him. Gopi assured us that he would be at the Jaipur station to pick us up. I got a call from Gopi as the Shatabdi was nearing Jaipur and that was quite reassuring. However, it took us quite some effort to figure out who was who once we got down at Jaipur. Once we met each-other, the first task was to find a hotel.

    That’s a great photo. The colors are soft in the background and bright in the foreground. Very nice.
