Which just about sums it up. Last morning in Jodhpur – didn’t move.
Had to pinch ourselves it is January.
Jodhpur Airport is just something else. Imagine a normal school assembly hall – that is the departure lounge. Something like 600 people with luggage all crammed in and then 2 flights leave at the same time. No departure info as the tv screens were showing cricket (obviously). So literally an impasse with absolutely no room to move.
Anyway, back to Delhi to the Colonel’s Retreat. We had thought about staying at the airport (and did again as we hit Delhi traffic), but it was good to be in the centre with one last fabulous Indian rooftop dinner.
Lovely walk in the park in central Delhi before a hitch-free 15 hour door-to-door trip home.
So that’s it. Santosh’ catchphrase was “Incredible India” – invariably about driving, motorway tolls, or general traffic-related things, but it sums up everything about a fantastic holiday. Certainly the most intense over such a long period – so much we’ve seen and experienced we need a holiday. So here are a few final memories.
