And these people are masters at the art of distraction. You鈥檒l spot the one approaching from the left, but not the imminent threat from the right. And if you say no they have ways of making you say yes. We were greeted with, 鈥淕ive me money鈥� by street urchins, 鈥淕ive me 20 rupees,鈥� by a man in a 鈥榣ocker room鈥� looking after our camera equipment, and graceful, exquisite and amused smiles by some of the most magnificently beautiful women in the world.

We got cold feet when it came to crossing the road in Jaipur and decided whatever was on the other side wasn鈥檛 worth attempting to cross even on a zebra crossing. We ate in a restaurant that clearly indicated 鈥楴o firearms or guns permitted,鈥� which made us feel safe. We saw a street fight in Agra over a traffic situation, the only one in the whole ten days. And we learned that when a car driver honks his horn it means, 鈥淚鈥檓 turning left,鈥� or 鈥淚鈥檓 turning right,鈥� or 鈥淚鈥檓 going straight ahead,鈥� or 鈥淚鈥檓 overtaking on the inside,鈥� or 鈥淚鈥檓 overtaking on the outside,鈥� or 鈥淚 just feel like honking my horn for absolutely no reason whatsoever other than I haven鈥檛 done it in a while.”
