Christmas party in Jaipur.

The 2nd-4th of December we went to Jaipur for Stephens Christmas party. The "whole" office went plus me, they are 4 people in their office.
So it is December and we where laying around the pool sunbathing in the mornings:) have never done that in December before and it is defenetlly worth it !
Me and Stephen took the flight there on Friday afternoon, it is only a 40minutes long flight so we thought why not. While the rest of his office took the train on Saturday morning, 5 hours it took them!

So we spent Saturday morning around the pool, then visiting some sights, we saw the monkey temple first which was very cool! I just said to Stephen the other day that I hadn't seen that many monkeys actually, but in the temple there where hundreds! It was really nice, no tourists and just really quiet, except for the occasional fight between the black and the brown monkeys!
As we have been to Jaipur before we were just doing things that we didn't have time to do last time.
So we went up to the top of a hill and saw the Jaigarh and Nahargarh fort's which were next to each other.
Again monkeys everywhere and one even stole an ice cream from a lady then jumped up in the tree! ha ha.

We had a room with a private garden so in the evening we sat out there drinking wine and chatting away, really lovely and romantic until Stephens work friends came along!
But that was OK, it was the company that payed for it I guess. So after that we went for a lovely meal in the Indian restaurant in the hotel with some more wine.

Sunday morning we stayed around the pool again and then we all checked out and went to the Rambagh Palace for some lunch, oh how lovely that was! We were seated outside in the sunshine on the grass and it was perfect!
Then our flight left at 4.45pm and we got home at about 7pm, while the boys took the train and got home at about 12!

It was a great Christmas party! Wouldn't mind staying around the pool every December!

Next weekend is Amritsar up in the mountains.... yes, it is gonna be cold.
