It was very tough to us to continue the ride in this weather. so, we took a small break to get little warm.

In pic: Our breakfast stop, it was too cold so we thought to have our breakfast which she cooked in the morning, Panner sandwich.

Somehow we managed to reach Jaipur and we stopped in a dabba to get coffee. it took time for us to get our body temperature to get normal.

After jaipur we made a bad choice for our route. Kishangarh - Bilwara - Chittograh - Udaipur. please don't choose this route if you are planning this route. this is actually NH48, full of trucks, deadly places, no option for bathroom. i was bit scared as i was riding with my wife. we choose this route because, it was national highway and double lined roads.

we reached Udaipur by 5:30 PM and was a tired day for us. but, the actual headache was after after reaching the city "NO INTERNET IN UDAIPUR THAT DAY". Section 144 was imposed by the security authorities in Rajasthan's Udaipur, fearing communal outrage, after a man was hacked to death over a social media post. we, spend a lot of time to find the our host, and it was 7:30PM when we finally reached.

We always choose homestay instead of hotel. so that we can meet travel people also it is cheep and safe too.
