Udaipur City Palace – or is there a better way to start a year?

HAPPY NEW YEAR !!

We had an early start – at least for New Year’s Day. We left the hotel around nine in the morning to walk over to the City Palace and a guided tour there.

It came out, this had been a sensible thing to do – as there were very few other groups – and as such we got around the usual chaos.

Rajasthan Dancing

Coming back from the boat ride most of us joined in for a performance of Rajasthan traditional dances in the Bagore Ki Haveli Museum.

Following that – it being New Year’s Eve – we made it back to the hotel and the rooftop restaurant to make it into the new year. Hot ginger, lemon and honey – with an addition of rum – was my drink of choice this year … nice taste and (most important) keeping one warm.
