Well, let's just say if the olympics had snoring contests, India might possibly win a few medals in Beijing this year. But Udaipur was just as dreamy and beautiful as its reputation leads you to believe it will be. A few too many tourist shops and 17 year olds from Europe, but other than that, a very nice place.
