India Photo Tour Day Six
November 23 & 24, 2012
Ranthambhore National Park
We have now arrived at Ranthambhore National Park for the safari portion of our tour. It was about a four hour drive from Jaipur this morning into the mountains that surround Rathambore. We have three visits into the jungle with hopes of some photos of the tiger. This park is proud to boast a population of 45 plus tigers. The afternoon was spent enjoying the resort and at 2:30 p.m. we departed for our first journey into the park. It was a beautiful afternoon netting some interesting images.
We will be back out at 6:30 a.m. for our next visit to the park. Some of the group are going to stay in the park after our safari and hike to the Ranthambhore fort high above the park and we look forward to sharing those images.
Good night from Ranthambhore and enjoy some of the images from today.
