A Few Photos from the Road in Rajasthan

Here we are in the remote areas of Rajasthan with the nearest big city dozens of kilometers away. But, I get cellphone service! I encounter dead spots all over Los Angeles, but here there is service. Go figure.



We took a few memorable pictures from the road today. First is a herder with his goats. A very common encounter. Yes, we had to steer our bikes around the goats or wait for them to pass.



Second is a photo taken by Caren of woman in Narlai carrying her disabled son in a metal bowl on her head. She also has a wheelchair for him.









The third photo is a too common sight in rural India as well as the urban areas - a woman with a young child begging for money.
