Okay, the Amber Fort.

The Amber Fort in Jaipur. Home of the long awaited elephant ride. But before you see those pictures, you have to hear about the Fort. Just note now, the long path in the front of the Fort leading up the hill -- that's where the elephants (and Jason and I) are about to go.

From Jason: The Citadel was established in 1592 by Man Singh I -- with numerous other buildings added by Jai Singh I throughout the 17th century. It was the Kachhawaha Citadel until 1727, when they moved their capital to Jaipur.

From Meghan: I went to the "Pink City" because it is supposedly home to spectacular markets and bazaars. In fact there are and it was lovely. But more to the point -- my hotel was stunning. With a pool. So we christened the bathing suits for the first time, had a massage and generally felt like royalty for two days.
