July 23



This weekend we headed to Mt. Abu for some R&R and cooler weather!  The hiking was a lot of fun as well as the temples we visited.  Driving on the very narrow roads was definitely an adventure, but we all survived!  On the way home we stopped to feed the monkeys camped out on the side of the road.  

Me on the temple stairs.
Another ladder.  Not sure why I think that they're cool, but something about using just simple things to make the basics intrigues me.
Me pumping water for an Indian tourist near the temple.
On of the guy above's friends.  He started dancing around and Sophie had my camera and just kept clicking away.  It was hilarious!

Place some money in the box, say a prayer, ring the bell.  This is at the highest point on Mt. Abu.
Peace Park is similar to the Hanging Gardens in Mumbai.  A place to come and relax in the quiet.
Peace park has all these signs in English and Hindi all over.  Though they were good reminders!


Monkeys hanging out on the road!
Feeding the monkeys.  Notice how little we could open the window.  As soon as we opened the window, the monkeys knew we had food and swarmed the car!
