The Holy Rat Temple - Bikkaner

Later this day we went to the market to buy fruit and met an aspiring school teacher. We told jokes with him and his friend until the sun went down. Witty jokes and not-so-witty jokes. Here is one of my favourites translated from Hindi.
"There was a man named Syd who was going abroad to work. He needed to pack a suitcase so he went to the market and bought one. Wne he got it home he realized he needed more room, so he went back to the market and bought a bigger one. He brought it home and realized that it woo was too small for all his things. So once more he headed to the market, found a large trunk and much to his delight, the trunk was large enough for his things and he left for the airport. During his flight, the aircraft encountered terrible mechanical porblems and was heading downward towards earth. To buy some time, they began throwing access cargo out of the plane one by one. The man was extremely saddened when he found out that his trunk was thrown out. He ran to the back even to see if it was real and it was. Now he would arrive in a new world with no belongings. If he arrives at all! That is the end of the joke wanna hear another one? [ok] A young couple was hopelessly in love wiht eachother. The man says "I love you so much I would do anything for you. I'd go to the moon. I'd bring you the stars. I'd even die for you." She says. "Ok die" So he starts to walk up a tall mountain and she follows. He looks back and says, "I'm going to do it honey", and she says, "ok". He walks a bit further and says, "I'm really going to do it honey" and she says, "ok". But before he could get to the top or ask again. He dies.
How?
Well, it was Syd/s trunk falling from the sky!

I'll never see those two again, they kind of dissappeared into that night, but the jokes made them legendary to me.
