At Jodhpur (4).

Got up at 5, sent all the messages. Was ready by a half past 8, had a light breakfast and we were off on a visit to historical sights.

The first monument was ‘Jaswant Thaada’. A beautifully made mausoleum, in white marble, by the eight wives of a popular king. Has properly manicured lawns and it was nice to be there.

Prashant Singh, our guide, spoke flawless English and I liked his narrative that covered places and events very accurately.

Our next destination was the Mehrangarh fort, a massive and well preserved monument. Went by the elevator for Lekha’s sake. At the end, came to know Makhan and Meena closer. Bought coffee for Bina and Asha.

A nice - but cautious lunch - at a retired Major Saab’s hotel called the “Spice Story”.

Returned to our hotel for a quiet evening.
