How was it traveling alone somewhere so different? I know some times I'm ready to go nuts on my travel partner, but to not have anyone to say "Hey look at that!" when they are clearly already looking at it just seems tough. I had a great time imagining you being stern with all those salesmen. I can't believe you jumped on the train too, that was super baller. Wow. How was it traveling alone somewhere so different?

I remember first stepping out to see the Taj (at dusk, too) and just staring. I thought it was a painting...it couldn't be real. Then a bird flew across my field of view, and I realized it was real. And the Agra Fort! Isn't this where Akbar had his court? With his court advisor Birbal? Maybe I'm mixing it up with the Lal Kila. It's so exciting to see you guys there...I wish I could be there too. Hate to hear the whole riggamarole (sp?!) those guides put you through... Wow, this post really takes me back to my only trip to Agra, which was a long time ago.
