1 hour before I purchased a flight ticket for my son Harry to come home, from America,

for Christmas 2012 in New Zealand, my very generous mother,

decided the entire family are going with her on her last overseas trip abroad.

Brother Craig chose India; his "spiritual home".

There is no place I want to go to less,

but if I want to see my sons Luke and Harry at Christmas,

I have to go.

This blog will tell the tale ...from start to finish.

Will I love India or hate it?

The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel…
àMost of the Marigold is set in Jaipur, Rajasthan for its "rich color palette" and constant chaos on the roads, a perfect background for a story about culture shock. But The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel in the film is actually Ravla Khempur, located in Khempur, about an hour outside of Udaipur.
The equestrian hotel is located in a quiet, rural setting that most tourists never see. The former tribal chieftain palace was chosen because it has become slightly run down—but not to the extent of being intolerable—just a little rough around the edges. The hotel also offers visitors plenty to keep themselves busy like horseback riding, camel safaris, and village sightseeing tours. Reservations and inquiries about the hotel can be made at www.ravlakhempur.com
