When we arrived at the train station our train was 2 hours delayed... That was a bit hard since we had gotten up at 0445 to catch the train, but we waited and arrived in Agra 3 hours later than we thought, but still early. We foun a hotel and then had a look at Agra Fort, which is much better than Red Fort in Delhi and very worth the time. After that we walked around Old Agra for a while, a bit of the tourist track we discovered, but interesting. Our noses got some challenging smells to tackle. In the evening we had dinner in Taj Ganj and had our first view of Taj Mahal, which was great!
Thursday morning we went to Taj Mahal. It took some time to find the ticket office, which is 1 km from the entrance and not particularly well known when you already live 50m from Taj Mahal. But the good thing was that there were no line to enter when we finally did :-) And the Taj is great!!! We spent some hours just walking around and was out again in perfect time for breakfast. The temperature was also pleasent. The rest of the day I slept and then we just hung out in the hotel and around. In the evening there was a street fest and a lot of hindu gods on bikes and trailers. :-)
