Bikaner to Jaisalmer 29/5

This morning we went to the Bikaner Fort and Museum. The museum had some period costumes, furniture, photos of princes and princesses, it was quite well done. We went into the fort after that, we only had a look around rather than following the guide and the main group as I wasn’t feeling very well, the dreaded travel guts has struck. The heat wasn’t helping either so we left fairly quickly. After that was the car ride to Jaisalmer which took around six and a half hours so we were pretty tired when we arrived. The whole day we were travelling through bone dry desert with the odd bit of scrub, some flattened trees and the odd goat or sheep wandering about trying to find something to eat. We also saw a baby camel wandering about on the side of the road, as well as the usual sacred cows ruling everything. After a short rest our driver Pal took me to watch the sunset from a vantage point set up on a hill - a complex where members of the royal family are cremated. The structure was impressive and the sunset wasn’t bad, a bit marred by all the dust in the air. Kirsten didn't venture out as she needed some more rest.
