34 ~ Love my new name : Luni
Felt very different to Khejarla
24.12.2018 - 24.12.2018
Now 3pm / 15:00 and time to leave as we had to get to Luni and my overnight stay at Fort Chanwa, another heritage hotel.
While Luni is located only 32 km / 20 miles away from Jodhpur, it took an hour to reach here getting through Jodhpur’s traffic.
Not much of the rest of the afternoon left with free time to explore this little village on my own but off I went and for the next hour took my usual “street photos”.
Walked the small village with shops effectively lining just 2 streets forming a crossroad.
It felt very different to Khejarla.
Again saw many barber shops.
The guy towards the end just outside the hotel was willing to pose for me then went and got out his padgi (headwear) to put on. Yes, he was really proud. Hate to think how often that he is asked for a photo.
Inside a couple were getting professional photos taken for their forthcoming wedding. See the drone.
Dinner = Paneer Tikka Masala – chargrilled paneer in the famous butter chicken gravy 350 rupees / NZ$7.10 / US$4.90.
Rice 150 rupees / NZ$3 / US$2.10.
Plus GST and a tip came to 595 rupees / NZ$12 / US$8.30.
Love my new name.
