petite escapade au Gujarat

hello everyone!!
how is going on??...

After 3 weeks in Rajasthan, i'm now in Gujarat. I found out the sun and the heat :-)
This is GREAT!! it's a bit too cold actually in Rajasthan.
I read on a newspaper, they have some problems with the cold, especially during the night (during daytime, it's around 20 degres, so that's okay). So the children start school one hour later than usual...

Well. What else...
I spent one and hald day in Mount Abu. I liked it.
1220m altitude, the view was wonderful, the night was ... cold. i used 3 blankets :) It was touristic, but maybe 95% indian tourists and 5% foreigners :-D
Then i have been to Ahmedabad for 2 days, but i didn't like it. 5 millions inhabitants, polluted, very noisy. But a very good organic restaurant!! (it can't be that bad)

And now i'm in Div Island (pronounciation: Di-ou). Like in paradise. It doesn't look India. It's a quite clean, not dusty, and calm. I love India, but it's nice too have a break in a quiet place. So i think to stay more-less one week, just enjoy and go to Sasan Gir Lion Sanctuary for one or two days. It's 3 & half hours North from Div. maybe on Wednesday. Will see...
So yesterday, I have been to 2 beaches :), seen a temple, the sunset point, and i ate a wonderful dinner my guesthouse organised.
...Considering it, maybe i'm going to stay to Marsh here :0 :)
