Hi everyone, Well, we left Agra this morning, bright and early! Up at 5:30, on the bus by 7 a.m. and heading down the road for a 5 hour bus ride to Delhi.

Understand Lloyd is coming west on the 20th so he will only miss this week-end (opens 18th). We will look after him till you get back.

Starwood Hotels in India
I feel very bad about the poor experience in the restaurant! Even across oceans and countries it still disappoints me to hear about bad service at one of our hotels.

Hi there
Our internet has been down for a week and I've been experiencing travel blog withdrawal pains. I'm all caught up with your blogs now. Glen told me about the cows in India, but it's so much more impactful to see them in your pictures. Glad you're having a good time. Can't wait for the book!

today we arrived in beautiful Dubai. We're just getting ready to go for our welcome dinner aboard a boat. Last time I was on a boat a couple of days ago it made me very homesick. Love to you both Tina

Holy Cow!(s)
Keep the blogs and the pictures coming. Travelling certainly is the best way to make us appreciate all we have at home. Thanks for reinforcing that with all of us. Good luck and great fun as you move onto Dubai! I want pictures of you in the dune buggy racing thru the dunes!
