Thanks for tip about making sure to secure a ride back with a jeep because I did notice that it was a one way trip with the elephants. I was wondering how to get back. Are there buses available, too? Or is renting a jeep the best idea? I also noticed some people carried an umbrella with them to...

Awesome! Although I have been for a ride on an elephant, it was certainly not in India! It is was at the circus. My kids and I went for a little elephant ride and it was so cool, but to go for a ride while in India would be a whole different experience. I simply had to go look for some pictures...

Has any visited or plan to visit the Red Fort in India? If so, I have a series of questions for you. What captured you most about this historical site? Was it the history or the archeticual structure? How long was your visit? Did you spend a couple of hours during the day or did you visit in...
