November 26, 2014. Nightlife in Jaipur

We explored the hotel grounds and stumbled upon this puppeteer next to the swimming pool.  He spoke Spanish, so it was fun to talk with him.  He put on a show, then gave us a puppet. The puppets are wearing traditional clothes from this area.  

Then our driver took us to a restaurant where there was typical dancing.  We ate outside.  It was a little cool, so they brought a small charcoal grill to warm us up.  We ordered a thali,  which is a platter of small dishes, so we could sample lots of regional foods.  

The women danced with lots of things on their heads, and soon they pulled George out to the dance floor.....

Very nice welcome to Jaipur!
