I thought was cricket, that complex game that lasts for 5 days with guys standing around in white outfits. Turns out the favored hobby is honking the car horn. The sound of the horn is everywhere, all the time and with different pitches, tones and melodies has become an almost after thought. Driving along on the roads often bumpy and unmaintained roads many things pass you by.
The giant trucks with ornately painted letters "HONK PLEASE" encouraging this honking, camels pulling loads carts filled with propane tanks, peacocks, dogs, women in brightly colored sari's...doing heavy road work. Everything is something to look at. Sitting anywhere, big city, little roadside tea stand there is amazing stuff to look at and in return the Indians love to stare...Mostly at Jamie.
Right now we are in Jodhupur and we are going to another batch of cities with difficult to pronounce names and we will end up in a week at the Taj Mahal.
I'm bitten and can't type anymore because I need both hands to itch.
Pics coming soon.

You need some calamine lotion. What about the insect repellent? They must sell both by the gallon
