Oh, Jaipur
Just yesterday, I had recommended Jaipur as a “breath of fresh air” to a friend considering traveling there. Jaipur was, in fact, the highlight of a trip through India a couple of years ago. My impression of the place was one of refuge, of education, of being apart from it all. And then today I see that there was a multiple bombing of this city. This doesn’t change any of those impressions, but it does cast a sad pall over them.
