Vimla's Village: First Visit
















On our third day in Jaisalmer we went to Vimla's village, Lakhe, to talk with some women and also to meet her family.  These are some pics from our time there. We feel in love with the family and have already been back to visit again.  We stayed overnight, they dressed me up in Rajasthani fashion, we met lots of relatives and neighbors, visited a famous temple in the morning, and slept under the stars.  It was a GREAT time.  There are a lot of photos!
