It's one thing being hasseled continually by bicycle and auto rickshaw driver's, but the final straw has to be when you leave your rickshaw for a short period, and return to find a monkey comfortably installed for it's breakfast. This is Jaipur.
Today visited the Monkey Temple for the sole purpose of finding a view point that overlooks Jaipur. Then headed out to the Amber Fort some 10 kilometres away. Worth visiting if only to see the surrounding hill top forts and the Jaipur Wall of China. Agra fort was much more interesting!
Tomorrow off to the surrounding countryside to try and find real Rajasthan living, and cusine. Jaipur is very noisy, sandy, and at present toooooooo hot. The early monsoon storms have started to arrive, and the skies above are begining to look rather menacing.
