Day 286 : Jaipur to Ranthambhore


Had breakfast in the peacock then walking home through the housing estate we saw real, wild peacocks walking around on the wall! We said to the hotel guy we could hear peacocks calling in the night but he said it was a milk wallah.

Checked out of our beautiful room. Was in a bad mood for no reason this morning and I take it back about people not staring anymore. At the train station people still stared at me and it feels like I’m having an episode of paranoia!

Waited for our transfer from Sawaimadhopur station, had to ring them to remind them to pick us up while we fended off rickshaw drivers pretending to be our transfer.

Arrived at Tiger safari resort which is one of the hotels that sit on the edge of town. It’s a small dusty, deserty town with lots of pigs and cows wandering around, lots of jeeps and many camels towing trailers. Room is nice, we weren't expecting much as this place is renowned for ripping off it’s captive market.
