I was a very long drive between Delhi and Jaipur, on roads like the picture below. Bumpy, dusty, narrow, often crowded and seemingly endless. Our driver had very long legs, and his knees were up at elbow height as he drove. I learnt that asking how far we had to go, if we were half way, or what time we might arrive was completely pointless. So I just sat back and took in the scenes that passed by my line of vision.
This was a cafe we stopped at for chai and a snack - the people there were curious about me, and thought I was buying carpets. Lots of laughter at that place!
