Yippee!!! I now have my very own picture of the Taj Mahal... what a magical place, so excited that I've seen one of the seven wonders of the world!!! Beautiful, & a very special place.
We got up early to make sure we had enough time to spend at the Taj... I didn't want to rush around & make sure I appreciated it properly. As we walked through the gate & caught sight of the top from a distance, myself & Lorna got really excited at the prospect, typical mum stayed calm & collect & just enjoyed the atmosphere.
It was still slighly foggy, but not half as bad as yesterday. As the day progressed so did the weather & finally we got some amazing photos, although it was nice to see the contrast & we got to see the Taj Mahal in two different lights!!
Mum & I watched Slum Dog Millionaire in a cool little hotel at Pushkar, it was nice & comfy with pillows & blankets, it was funny to pick up on little things they do out here & when they showed the Taj I vowed that I'd get a photo of me pinching the top!! We had time to sit for a while & take the view in, there were many tourists but you could take yourself off to the side & not be bothered... it was really peaceful amongst the chaos.
All in all a really fantastic day!!
One the train front... I tempted fate yesterday by saying that all our public transport had been on time, unfortunately because of the bad fog our train we are meant to catch is 20 hours late! Our guide has rearranged our over night train so that we leave at 11.30 tonight to be honest its cool that we don't have to rush around!
