Jodhpur

Jodhpur was our third stop in India, right after visiting Jaipur. It was sure an adventure! Unfortunately, all of us seemed to have a stomach bug on and off, something that seemed to be following us around all of India. The hotel we stayed at was decent (not by an Americans standards, but by a world traveler's standards it was reasonable). However we were all disappointed in it though, as its website had claimed it had three pools, numerous playgrounds, that it offered bikes and segways, the rooms had kitchenettes, etc, etc. It did not have any of these (although there was one pool, it was dark green with algae). The nice thing was that it had a full selection of TV channels (not the norm, just in case you were wondering) so that anyone who felt sick could stay at the hotel and watch Man vs. Wild or some other such show. The best part of being in Jodhpur was definitely touring Mehrangarh fortress. Overall, Jaipur was a cool city.
