Another day, another million people and another temple to check out, this time the temples of the well known ancient Karma Sutra. It was also Gordon’s birthday today and Shelly and I were able to go shopping finally as well. The rickshaws shassy was completely removed and reshaped, I followed the wrong car around Khajaraho and managed to slightly swipe the side of the rickshaw when driving up to a petrol tank, whoopsie! What else happened today??? Oh Katie started her photo diary today of the, “pants of India” - which is simply a few hundred or so snaps of the fashionista trousers sported by males here in India.
The Buddhist temples of Karma Sutra in Khajaraho were awesome! The graphic statues in the temples and the on the sides of the exterior walls were such a good laugh and also very arousing! The architecture of the temples was simply stunning also, as you looked up to the sky the roof of the temples looked like gigantic jengar blocks or a sandstone lego block castles. These kind of old and graceful places tend to take you back to your childhood I think.
Meanwhile due to the lopsided appearance of our rickshaw yesterday and the tough terrain the rickshaw had to endure yesterday we sent her off to the mechanics to get looked at. Sure enough the Shassy had a big huge stress crack in it. So it was removed and replaced, kind of weird that the entire capsule of our rickshaw can be removed and then put back together in approx 3 hrs. Thankfully it drove much better today! Until I side swiped it at the service station that is, again…..whoopsie!
On the road again and all went well, painted birthday party faces on for Gordon and all. We arrived safely into Rewa.
