5th November 2006: exploring Pushkar
After a tiring day I woke up refreshed and saw Joel packing, he was leaving for Ahmedabad, it was time to bid farewell to a new found friend. After half an hour or so Dheeraj and Eric arrived, the three of us got ready and went to the Pink Floyd cafe and placed our orders for breakfast, in the meantime the rest of the gang arrived and all of us started chatting and eating breakfast.
After yesterday every one was in a lazy mood, well all except Vivek sir who headed back to Delhi. While at the cafe we were joined by cafe owners cute and energetic kid who kept us entertained for the better part of the day:
With the outside temperature rising we decided to chill out in the cafe itself:
After we were finished with our extended breakfast, we realized it was lunch time! So placed an for lunch and guess what did we ordered? Well there were ten of us now, so we ordered 10 different Mexican and Israeli dishes, with the waiter bringing dishes one by one and ten people sharing each and every one of them it usually took us less than a minute to finish a dish!
After we were finally through with our lunch we realized it was 5:45pm and we haven't yet visited the camel fair! realizing this we hurried our way back to our rooms and got ready to visit the fair. Soon we were out trying to capture Pushkar the best we could:
After checking out the fair and going for a night camel buggy ride we decided to see Maut ka Kuan (death pit) where 2 motorcycles and 2 cars are simultaneously driven in a wooden pit!
