Agra

Today we departed Delhi on our lovely air conditioned bus. We arrived in Agra at 1ish when we checked into our hotel and then went to a local Indian restaurant for lunch. 

After lunch we visited the Red Fort, where we had a guided tour.  It was very interesting as we got to see the different architectural influences from the different religions. At certain points of the Fort we could see the back of the Taj Mahal which made us very eager and excited for later today. After much anticipation the time had come to visit India's most famous landmark. We were all very excited to see the front of the Taj Mahal. 

When we got in we were told all about the history of the palace which was really interesting, after learning about the history we had an hour to take photos (take on the role of Princess Diana) and look at the inside of the Taj Mahal. We all renewed our promises in front of the Taj Mahal, with seven girls making their senior section promise for the first time.  

Then we got back on the bus and did a bit of bus shopping - where the sellers show us the products  and we can decide in a safe environment if we want to purchase the item. This evening we went to a Chinese and Indian restaurant- which was sooo nice and tasty!!!

Star of the day: Daisy - for trying different foods.
