the Taj!



Sent from my iPad
Wow!  OMG!  I was absolutely awestruck by the Taj Mahal, affectionately called the Taj by the locals.  It was huge and sparkling white.  The building is even more impressive when you look closely at the inlaid marble artwork that decorates the tomb both inside and out.  The kids were hoping to see a monkey there, we heard a story from another traveler at the b&b in Delhi who saw one there.  No monkeys in sight here, but we saw two at the Agra Fort, our next stop(look for the monkey in the picture).   The fort was actually a series of ornate palaces and courtyards enclosed by a huge red sandstone wall.  The fort was as amazing as the Taj because of the size and beauty. Plus, there amazing vies of the Taj Mahal from the fort.  We had our first rain of the visit, which was a blessing as we walked around outside all afternoon.
