The journey from Agra to Jaipur and Uncle's shop

Ram drove us on the very long car journey from Agra to Jaipur but with plenty to see along the way (and air conditioning thankfully).

Monkeys came to say goodbye...

...as did several cows.

Whole groups of people travelling from A to B

A demonstration before reaching Jaipur meant we had to take a massive diversion through villages where the locals were astonished to see a car with white faces.

Meanwhile we enjoyed seeing their modes of transport

First stop in Jaipur: Ram's uncle's shop

We were given a demonstration of how the material is printed by hand...

...and left to dry in the sun, where it sometimes changes colour.

So much choice, with every shade you could imagine
