To spot a tiger, not to spot a tiger, to spot a tiger, not to spot a tiger... How many petals does a flower have?
a) 15
b) 20
c) any number but always enogh to stop at "not to spot a tiger"

That's the story about my trip to Ranthambore National Park, where seeing a tiger is almost guaranteed. Maybe I didn't put enough emphasis on the world "almost" when I booked a private car to go there and back in one day. This totaly busted my budget and I will have to live on chapatie and water  for the next week.

Nevertheless, it was a nice trip. The setting of the park is amazing with crumbled historic buildings spread out the whole area. We also saw a lot of animals, eg deer, owls, Kingfishers, crocodiles, turtles, monkeys, wild pigs, etc. All the fucking  brute you wouldn't give a shit to see when you are out for a dangerous, almighty tiger!

The Canter (a roof-less 20 seater 4WD), I was on, also did it's job on my suntan. When I got back to the hotel and  saw my face in the bathroom mirror, my skin was tanned like the skin of the Indians! Wow, I loved it! Unfortunately, all came off under the shower.
