We came back from Jharkand on Thursday and found Lena at the hotel. We stayed at the Ramada Plaza which is a real five star hotel (made affordable by once again putting all four of us in one room!). Thursday night we went to Olive and then to Urban Pind. It’s a club that has expat night every Thursday night. We got there and the bouncer asked… “Are you here with Fashion TV?” “Yes, Yes we are!”. I love it. We got some good photos. There were a lot of Russian models there. Lena tried to introduce me to them but it was just really awkward. They didn’t really have much to say and I didn’t have much to say. Friday night we got into the grand opening party for the new club at our hotel and it was full of Bollywood stars. We met a bunch of stars and one of them hung out with us for most of the night. The pictures tell the story.
Saturday morning we visited the Jaipur region. I didn’t have high expectations, but it was amazing. We agreed that the Amber Fort on the hilltop was more impressive (if not more beautiful) than the Taj Mahal simply based on the size and ambition of the construction. It was fun to hang out with the whole team in a more relaxed setting. We drove back Sunday morning. Jack left Sunday night and Team FAB was downsized to three.
We went and spoke with Rajesh at UID again. He lined us up with key appointments for the coming week. We had some great Indian food for lunch and then went to meet with a bank. I was surprised about how well the meeting went. We came back and I took a couple of laps around the pool. It was outside, so every breath was of brown pollution.
