Rosemary's Ramblings
didnt sleep that well - obviousely the train kept stopping to pick people up - even tought my bad was padlocked under the bottom bunk i still had to keep checking it - soon became unnecessary as the more people that boared the less accesable my bag became. the ticket guy came round at some stupid time at night but couldnt wake Brent up so he decided to trust us! we had already show the ticket about 4 times before anyway!
i was awake quite early ands wathced the sun rise slowly throught he crakc in the window i could see from my bunk! i dozed for a while until they asked me to put it way so i did grudginly and took up as much space as i could until they said make the bed again... i slept a bit more and read some - then ended up playing peek aboo with a four year old - he kept talking to me in hindi i guess i spoke to him in english and we understood each other perfectly! (well maybe not!)
his mum looked so worried all thte time she kept asking him to leave me alone but i didnt mind! It was funny and he helped pass the time. Shane was the next to come down so we chatted about stuff and meditation - It was quite a while bfore brent joined us but he'd not been well so probaly did him good to sleep.
the was a baby a bit further down the corridor that everytime i looked at him he burst into tears - it was really funny - even his mum thought so (fortunaly!) i could make his bottom lip quiver on demand... shane thinks i'm mean brent thinks i'm talented!!! shane also thought that maybe we had some pat life differences - whoi knows! i got a photo of him...
anyway we eventually got to Agra and got off the train after convincing shane to come with us to see the taj mahal - he suggested staying at a hotel just away from the taj whcih worke out quite nicley as it was quiet and cool and a really great hotel! they even came and picked us up from the train station free of charge.
lovely place with a garden and cool big rooms - brent and i shared - shane had his own! went for dinner at a roof top restraunt that over looked the taj mahal but it wasnt lit up as i half expected it ot be. Food was good so with satisfied stomachs we bought soem fruit for breakfast before heading back to bed!
Brent has got one of those 60 gig ipods with a grat commedian on it so we plugged my speakers in an laughed solidly for about and hour - my cheeks hurt so much! fell asleep really happy!
