Aw man, now my pants are going to smell like wet camel!

Today was a perfect last day in India. After a long car ride we arrived in Jaipur, AKA The Pink City. I could detail all we did but that would take forever and pictures are just more fun to look at:
Indian Attempt at Westernizing breakfast for us
...and yes, this was an alternative blog title (Pan Cake. Baked Beans. Porridge.) 
Inside a tower at Amber Fort
Contemplating a bath
Just a light lunch to get me through the day!
While our guide took this picture of us,  some Indian tourists stopped and took our picture too....I'm pretty sure that will never stop being strange to me

This palace was built with three stories underwater

What happens when you try to take selfies while on a camel
This incredible place is our hotel for the night.  Its a heritage hotel-- the best way I can describe it is an Indian Bed and Breakfast.  They even let us see multiple rooms before we picked the one we wanted! 
We've been in India for 5 weeks and we still don't know how to lock the doors

And with that, my last day in India is done.  The true icing on the cake was washing my hair tonight with jasmine-scented shampoo. I am truly going to miss this wonderful country.

Our driver is picking us up at 3:30am to head back to Delhi in order to make it for my 12:30pm flight. I then fly for 9 hours to get to London, after a 3 hour layover it's another 6 hours from there to JFK.  I will post when I am safely back in America (I land at 11:00pm July 3- its like time travel!)

I love you all and can't wait to see you!
