Bikaner

We are now in the hot and dusty city of Bikaner. We arrived yesterday after a two day stay in the "blue" city of Jodhpur. We haven't explored too much the last few days because the heat is so intense, but we did make it to the "rat temple" today. It was a pretty nasty place. Thousands of mangy rats feeding on sweets and milk. The hot sticky smell of feasting rats was more than I really care to encounter again. But the 30km ride through the desert was pretty beautiful. Tomorrow we hope to take a camel safari if we can get a good price. We will be leaving here the following day and heading back to Delhi to catch an overnight train North. I forgot to bring the memory card reader, so no pics today. I will try tomorrow.
