Indian food - I'm lovin' it !!!

Aaloo
Palak
Paneer
Dal
Mutter
Parantha
Naan
Masala
Kingfisher's
Chai
Samosa
Chapati
Those are some names of indian dishes - doesn't it sound absolutely delicious ??? Well, at least stufabi is freaking out.
We are so happy with the indian cuisine, no problems with spiciness or with our stomach and the translations work pretty well because of our good friend LONELY PLANET.
Are you wondering where the picture above is taken ??? We will tell you soon.
It's taken in the desert Thar on our overnight camel-safari-trip from Kuri. You can see our camel-drivers while cooking the dinner: Rice, potatoes (aaloo), dal (lentils), chutney and chapati (tortilla-like bread). Fabi even tried to roll out the dough but the result acording to the locals was not acceptable so they sent her back to sit with the others around the bonfire.
Our trip to the desert is our highlight so far. It was a great experience to sleep in a great million-star-hotel ;-)

Our current location is Udaipur, the city of the lakes...another beautiful place in Rajasthan !!!
Next stop: Pushkar

hi stufabi
we enjoy reading your reports from your trip and love the photos.
This week, the whole Ruckstuhl-dinasty (exept you)is on vacation on the Bettmeralp. The last three days we had great weather. Today it's foggy and snowing - one bad day is acceptable.
We took a picture of the whole gang. But we didn't figure out yet how to put it on the blog. Can we only send text??

Greetings from the whole family. Everybody here is missing you. Have a great time!
