It's a tough job...

I reckon I could have done ok at this Maharaja job. They seemed to have led a pretty sybaritic lifestyle and certainly knew how to splash the cash.
Today we took a tour around the palaces of Udaipur to see what they got up to. Here's one of his four palaces.




And then we couldn't resist a little boat trip to the Pleasure Palace.

Last night, the Major(rtd), our host at the Guest House was up at the palace with the current Maharana at a full moon bash. Here he is with the Memsahib, on his way out - no she didn't wangle an invite.
