Travelling full speed!

The travelling is going fast...
Here some images from days 5 to 7...


Day 5: Bikaner
Visit to Ford Junaragh,
the former gorgeous palace from the Maharadja from Bikaner.

Detail inside Ford Junaragh
Before entering Fort Junaragh




















Visit to the Rat Temple...
Rats are sacred here
and it is believed to bring good luck
if a rat runs over your (of course bare) feet.


Can you spot the rats?

They are fed well, so they don't bite off your toes.

Kissing the hallway wall... 
Day 6: Bikaner - Jaisalmer
Stopped by a brick factory on the way...

The burntower
A little boy that lives
and probably works there





















Camel Tattoo at the desert festival.


Day 7: Jaisalmer
Desert festival




















Walk through town





And then I didn't mention
the Camel race,
the cultural program from the desert festival,
our camel ride
our visit to a silver smid
the millions of tiny shops
our visit to a deserted and destroyed desert village
and a million more images and pictures,
on film and in my head...
