Hello from Jaisalmer, India.  

We are now in pure desert and the openness of landscape is much appreciated by me after the wealth of stimuli in the larger cities.  We had planned to leave almost immediately for a camel trek in the wilderness, but Jani came down with a stomach bug, so we have put our plans on hold for a day or two.  Jani seems almost completely recovered this morning, and if he passes the day well today, we will head out at 6:15 tomorrow morning.   Just us, the stars, the sand, camels and guide.   :)  See you when we get back.
