Agra!

Hello blog readers! We spent today touring Agra, in preparation to tour the Taj Mahal tomorrow. It is closed today, as it is a mosque. We visited the Agra fort, which is very old. It has two moats: one with water for crocodiles and one with land for tigers and other scary creatures. Our host family supplied us with a driver, an escort, and a tour guide, all of which were helpful. We then drove to the Baby Taj, which is exactly what its name implies. It is also a mosque, so we walked around with no shoes. The weather is nice, and there were not many people there, so it was an enjoyable way to spend a few hours.

We have decided that an appropriate theme for this blog would be food, as we've pretty much eaten nonstop since arriving. For example, earlier today we asked for a "light lunch". We were served an appetizer, soup, multiple main dishes, rice, salad, and bananas for dessert. We have considered taking before and after pictures of ourselves to demonstrate the inevitable weight gain!

Today was a day for shopping. At one point, the three girls were sitting on a couch in a store while Woody considered jewelry and Telly was measured for some new suits. Everyone spent some money, some more than others!

Hopefully we'll get some photos up soon!
