Today I got to see one of the wonders of the world and it really did live up to it's name. I arrived in Agra last night and so got up early this morning to fit in time to see everything most of all the Taj Mahal. I had my first roun of illness last night, I had dal and chapatis for dinner so cannot work out what it was from but it really disrupted my sleep and I was scared it would disrupt today but luckily enough when i woke this morning I felt absolutely fine. The taj was amazinf, the huge green ground that the memorial is in the centre of are emacxulately kept and the whjite marble centre piece cannot only be reached wearing shoe covers and paying 75 times more than indians. I really loved it and cannot believe it was done as a romantic offering for his wife, I'm hoping my husband will do the same for me one day.
After a long day and hardly any sleep I am now very tired and so bored of waiting for trains., I waited in Agra for 4 hours for my late train and then jumped off a moving train, graving my arms and knees in order to get off at Jaipur so after checking into my hotel at 2am I am now going to sleep and as I am here for two nights I am settiong no alarm.
btw I am also very bored of the staring espeially at the train station, I am not the first white person they have ever seen and when I am tired and hungry and by myself they all need to stop as it is starting to really get on my nerves!!!
