putting spice back into my curry - 12 nov

so, after 5 days of letting the intestinal bug run its course, i decided to try it the modern way, with DRUGS. DRUGS ARE AWESOME. after the third day, things were pretty much all systems go (or rather, stop :) ) and i could eat something other than rice and plain lentils. (the spices and cheese didn't make my life very pleasant for a while.

I'm back in Jaipur, returning from Pushkar. The camel fair was very fun, but only just started to get busy today. i was there for a half day, and that was enough of the crowds. while there, i met many camels (separate posting) and inhaled much desert dust.

i will be here in jaipur for two days, but then off to Agra, where the great Taj Mahal is. I've decided not to visit more of Rajastan, since i don't really want to deal with the dust (and scams). i will visit this area first next time :).
