We drove some seven hours over bone-rattling roads to Bundi. Large-scale construction.seems to be underway throughout Rajasthan as the infrastructure of India tries to keep pace with other technology and prosperity. We have been in Bundi for three days and internet has not been available.
Also we have been hit by Delhi Belly (C) and the flu (M) which has slowed us down a bit. Nevertheless, there are many photos to post to the Flickr site. We have had many opportunities to experience the wonderful hospitality of people here in India. As our driver Anand told us: “In India the guest is seen as god and we treat our guest as if we are serving Krishna.”
In Bundi we stayed at the Bundi Haveli Hotel which was opened three months ago by Lulu, an Australian woman, and her business partner. It is a delightful place furnished with the ultimate blend of traditional design and modern conveniences. Highly recommended!
The people of Bundi are not yet overwhelmed by tourists and remain open and warm as if they are honored by our presence. We are indeed the ones who are honored.

Hi Martin & Cindy,
Looks like a great adventure!
Hey, Martin, keep an eye out for any objects or art work that might be used for a future performance of The King and the Corpse, a tale which originated in India. I haven't given up on you, me, and Doug, and perhaps Chris & Richard, performing this in the future, even if it is 5 years into the future.
