Bangalore

I decided to not stay in Delhi... at all. I arrived at my hotel at around midnight and left again for the airport at 4a.m. to catch an earlier flight south. I ended up paying a fee to cover the price difference between my purchased flight and the early morning one, but I wanted to avoid arriving late down south and the crazy day-time traffic in the capital.

I didn't do much in Bangalore even though I arrived quite early. I did however have enough time to see the millions of bookstores, listen to the big hits like Living la Vida Loca and Gasolina and see an international aspect of the city before taking a night bus to Cochim.

Breathtaking Wonders

I left Jaipur eeeeeeeearly in the morning to get to Agra before noon and have the day to see Fort Agra and the Taj at sunset before heading off to Delhi in the evening. Fort Agra, although standing "in the shade" of the Taj, is still worth a visit... before you go to the main tourist attraction in town though!

The Taj Mahal you see on photos or postcards is not even close to what you see when you get there. Sure, getting in is quite a hassle due to less than friendly security and semi-ignorant staff, but once you enter the view is absolutely breath-taking! The park gives a sense of peace and harmony regardless of the amount of visitors at that particular time. It's breath-taking... and leaves you speachless... See for yourself:

I sent a couple of smaller packets to friends in different corners of the world from Udaipur. In India, you have to get your things packaged at a special point where they'll be wrapped up in newspapers, sewn into a piece of white cloth and then sealed. The tailor I went to took the sealing hard and needed to leave his shop after 3 packages and leave the rest to Bunty...
