Nope, we didn't see any dolphins; however, we saw a lot of other amazing things and had a great three day weekend with great friends. We headed south to the Chambal Safari Lodge to take a couple safari's on and around the Chambal River Sanctuary. We saw some amazing wildlife, the Fort Ator, and visited a nearby village.
Our first activity was the camel safari to Fort Ator built between 1664 and 1668 (If you just want to see the wildlife pics -Crocs, etc-, scroll to the end).

We wish we knew more about birds because there were so many of them. We were really excited to see Bar-Headed Geese that migrate each year over the Himalayas from Siberia. You can see a video of their migration here.
Another fun bird to watch was the Pied Kingfisher.
And some more birds...

And then, the big boys.... the Marsh Crocs and endangered Gharian Crocs.
An unexpected side trip was to a nearby village led by Sanjay, a very enthusiastic local that showed us around and invited us for tea in his house despite the rain.

Awesome pics! Looks like you had a great time. Don't worry, river dolphins are way less cool than those crocs!
