"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." -Mark Twain

***Delhi - Jaipur #3***

We went back to the same hotel and had lunch.

Now we start out for a five hour bus ride to Jaipur.  We traveled through the country side.IMG_3549 (Small) IMG_3552 (Small) IMG_3555 (Small)

The tut tuts lined up to get fuel.

We stopped half way into our bus ride to use the bathroom facilities and get a drink.

Part of the Colors Festival is building a big fire with a pole stuck straight up in the middle the night before.  We saw these fires in different streets.

We finally reached our hotel after the long bus ride.  We could not believe the place we were going to stay.  This hotel use to be a palace.  The bus had to be checked through security and so were we.

Once we were inside the hotel, we were greeted with a red dot to the forehead and given a flower lei. After a small glass of a lemon drink, we were shown to our room.
