I had a brilliant stimulating time here and I stayed longer than planned. Thanks to Praduman Singh. My start today was relaxed and my intention, after consulting with Praduman was to take small roads as much as possible. There are many possible routes offered by google (also in walking mode) and all involve some bad roads. The slow manoevering through these stretches slowed me down and tired me out. It was a very long 136 kms.
Eventually I reached Kotri. This is an old small haveli. I was the only guest and received full “saheb” treatment which I find unnatural, stifling, and annoying. The food is also geared for foreigners and quite bland. I cannot believe I didn’t take a photo of the 2 beautiful salukis they have, but I did take a photo of the Marwar horse. The caretaker of the stable had interesting information too. Most of the Marwari horses are in Gujarat and Punjab and most breeding done in Rajasthan (marwar).
They also organize riding safaris. I asked the price- 25,000 rs. for a 1 day excursion.
