Feb 19 Wed Agra

early morning start to get to the Taj before the crowds. Very early morning start. Then back for breakfast and then another Famous fort Visit

Taj inside.

We could go inside, but photographs are not allowed. It looks quite spectacular in the sunlight. On a separate note, I tried to avoid coffee and drinking yesterday and ended up with a terrible headache because of the lack of caffeine.

I had never experienced this before. I woke up in the morning, had a double espresso, and the headache went away.

Into the bus to the fort.

Never been conquered
notice Mugal ruler with lots of Hindu influence and Muslim influence

I am not impressed with this hotel. It’s a good hotel of course. It’s a real five star, but it just reminds me of a large Marriott. somethings are very sloppy: neither Neil nor I could find an acceptable beer to drink. They only had five of them. One of the guests tried to have a Manhattan oh no, we can’t make that. laundry done possibly on time but I had trouble getting it. They speak so softly on the phone I can’t hear the delivery instructions. naturally, first world problems. 

Dinner. The yogurt was outstanding.

    Raising a latte to confirm the importance of maintaining an appropriate amount of caffeine intake daily!
