Third Time Lucky

Last week I was in Jaipur for a short holiday and thought I’d spend some quality time in the hotel garden. As soon as I walked down, my eyes fell on the hammock which was temptingly swinging lightly in the breeze, tied between two Gulmohar trees in full bloom. So I ran to it, kicked off my shoes and immediately got on.

Alas…..the balance on it was out and humpty dumpty fell off not once but twice. Totally embarrassing since there were three gardeners watering the garden who witnessed the fall. This picture is a result of the third try…..thanks to one kind gardener who held the hammock while moi got on. Third time lucky :D
