Feeling much better today and have managed to eat a few things. And that’s given me more energy to communicate so am feeling less lonely too. Tho I’m still ushered off to the posh bit of places on my own to eat.
It’s a long 7 hour drive from Jaipur to Jhodpur and Rana nephew Raju, drove for a bit. Then I had a go J 80Kph is all you can get out of a 13hp (apparently, tho it must be more) Tata but that makes you one of the quickest things on the Indian motorway. The really scary thing is the brakes or almost complete lack of them. Engine braking is almost as effective. And I’m guessing this car is less than 3 years old.
Rana’s newphew was playing some Hindi tunes on the stereo so after I put some Nintin Sawhey, Badmash & Shree and a few other random anglo-indian (ish) tunes I have. They seemed to like it and Rana was singing along.
Will blog again about Jodpur laters.
