Here is a map of India that I stole from a website to show you where we've been. I'll do this properly at some point with a map that has all the names of places we stopped at.

You can see the weird roundabout route we're taking - we started in Mumbai, went to Aurangabad first, then darted back to Mumbai so we could go to Jaipur. From there we went west to Pushkar, Jodhpur, and Jaisalmer, and then down to Udaipur. From there we went south to Ahmedabad, had that long flight to Bangalore, and then made our way through Mysore, the Nilgiri Blue Mountains (in blue) and then today in Kochi on the southern west coast.
