Left my bags at the hotel. Headed to Nahargarh Fort, a steep uphill walk.
It's nice, overlooking the city. There are two stepwells.
The way back followed the ridge line. Then wound down the hill, v fun.
Stopped at 2 leather shops. One wanted 3500 for a very average bag that was 1300 without a discount in Pushkar, the identical camel leather with green carpet lining. Makes the decision easy.
Got 4 identical sweets after asking for a mix selection of 3. The language barrier is stopping me eating more.
Went back to the 5 star hotel. They wouldn't let me park in front via the main entry gate on a bike to collect my bags. Well screw you guys eh.
Got into the home stay, which is on the 2nd floor, feels like an ikea ad.
Went to the Albert museum, which had pottery, more guns etc, some replica art work, interesting, but a bit boring.
Dinner was at Tadka Town तड़का टाउन. I had Gatta masala, gram flour dumplings in a spicy yogurt-based gravy, which is not really much veg in the veg dish. Was still hungry, got some dahl. After I went searching for snacks, had 2 milk cakes, 2 bananas and a Minus 30 brand mango ice cream, not bad, while locked out of the front gate.
The owner informed me that it's not locked. I used the paddle pop stick to lift the bolt and then got in, then left the bolt up so others can get in to the home stay.
I think I'm full enough now.
