Early morning safari in Ranthambhor National Tiger Park. Great excitement - rare leopard sighting (briefly, no photo). A tiger in vicinity - huge footprints in sand, warning cries from sambal deer and monkey - but not seen. Maybe better luck as we head out again late afternoon? #IntrepidIndia

Afternoon safari in Ranthambhor National Tiger Park: got to see not one but two magnificent, regal tigers - lazing, sleeping, keeping cool with a dip in the waters, completely ignoring our excitement. Tick bucket list. No photos (yet) as camera phones not allowed. #IntrepidIndia

Hot air ballooning, near Jaipur. Apparently we took a new direction so our balloon was an object of great curiosity to villagers below, who waved and called greetings, then rushed to meet us as we landed. #IntrepidIndia

Today a drive from Deogarth to Phulad in the mountains to catch train that runs on 1930s narrow gauge from Marwar Junction to Khamli Ghat. Lots of sheep, goats, cows, water buffalo, camels, monkeys on the country road. Then a real piece of Indian railway history. #IntrepidIndia
