So Delhi was an eye opener now off to see the sites but 1st a 6hr drive.
Traveling through the districts to get out of Delhi, they are huge, industrial poor places with hundreds of people - ant live rushing off to work, buy food or school. In fact were not sure where all these people go to so early but they are all walking on a mission to somewhere. Lots of temples, lots of women working in the fields and men at their stalls or shops. Women seem to get the raw deal. Saw our 1st camel and trap - Eliz very excited she cant stop taking pics. Red Fort, Hindi temple (massive and forgot name), saw the Taj from a distance, baby Taj today.
Not sure we have taken to Agra - very dirty and busy no one seems to have much respect for their surroundings there is so much litter. I dont think the hotel is up to much either. Our 1st storm tonight massive electrical storm, sand wipped up in the massive winds and a power cut so cards by head tourch. 3rd April We should of had an early start today to see the Taj at sunrise but because of our crap nights sleep we didnt wake up until 6.20am ahhhh very annoying. Well we rushed there we had missed the sunrise but it was still amazing and because we were early there were not a massive amount of people around. Breath taking site, calm, pieceful setting. Amazing, a picture does just not do it justice I could of starred at it all day.
Off to Jaipur now.
