The TajThe TajThe Taj

Me in front of the Taj Mahal
Hi all,

Well we finally made it!

We arrived in Delhi on Monday to a massive culture shock; within the first day we had already almost fell for the green tourist trap when a well dressed young man approached us being all friendly. He managed to lead us in the completely wrong direction in order to take us to "tourist information"; needless to say we wont be falling for that one again!

After a couple of busy days in Delhi we headed to Agra which is where we are now.

We visited the Taj Mahal today which is truly stunning and does live up to it's expectations even if admission is a little overpriced! (rs750!!). We also visited Agra fort which similarly was worth the visit.


Luckily neither of us has yet succumbed to Delhi belly although i'm sure our time will come!

Hope all is well back in the cold, dismal UK! ha
