Well, Christmas was memorable, so one would expect GAP to provide an equally impressive New Years experience. So, here we are on New Years Eve in Pushkar, a meat and alcohol free town - yikes!
Actually, it was great being in such a small place after the larger cities. I took advantage of the time to get my hair cut (40 rupees, or 80 cents). And yes, the cut was decent.
So, no booze on New Years, what to do? We, our GAP leader took care of that situation. There was another tour group of Aussies there from Intrepid, so the 2 groups banded together, and we arranged a party ourside town in the desert. They set up tents for us, had a huge feast, music and dancing, bonfires being tended by people to keep us warm, and of course a bar to keep us in the mood for dancing. It was so much fun, and like Christmas, a totally unique way to spend New Years.
