I just watched the sun come over over Jaipur. We are stayng at a heritage property called the Raj Palace. It feels like a museum. We are having agreat time. We road elephants yesterday to the top of an ancient castle. Last night we had a priviate concert by local musican. As the music started a family of baboons crawled across the top of the wall a joined us for the event until the private firewoerks show scared them off.

After months of planning and dreaming, the trip is beyond my expectations. Delhi was overwelming with poverty and traffic. I enjoyed an evening with the India director of CFHI. He gave me a tour of some of Delhi's sites. India Gate, the Presidential Palace and lots of traffic, horn honking, elephants and camels and motorcycles with families of 4.

Our first journey was about 4 hours away to an amazing bird santuary. Quite a difference from the noisy city. The afternoon was spent exploring the Taj Mahal. October is a month of festivals so this wonder of the world was full of lots of Indian vacationers and tourist from around the world.
I'm off to a yoga class. More later!
