From the desert to the Palace!

 Hi, this is Maria.  We spent an amazing night in the desert and then got up and loaded up the camel carts to go eat breakfast. After breakfast we made our way to the bus and drove five hours to the city of Jodhpur where we did some shopping....FUN FUN FUN!!! Dr. Smith had said when we were done shopping that the team would be taking a tour of this beautiful palace, so when the shopping was finished some of us were kinda tired and did not want a tour....BUT....when we got to the palace it was not only a palace but also a BIG BEAUTIFUL HOTEL :) :) We were all in awe :)  The surprises continued as the general manager updated all of our rooms to suites and our dinner was upgraded as well. For dinner, every one dressed up and met in the incredible lobby.  The dinner had been moved to the beautiful outside lawn, where there was a path that had been lit with candles.  The girls were escorted by the guys to the diner tables. The area where we ate is also where the ending of the movie "Night with the King" was filmed. Diner was amazing!!  The food was prepared perfectly and served with great precision.  We all felt like kings and queens, being served hand and foot :D!
