Taj Ma-what?

TAJ MAHAL!!!! Yep, I finally made it to Agra and saw the Taj Mahal! I don't really know what else to say about it except that it's amazing...REALLY amazing

The first sighting 

!!!!!!!!  




With my friend Drew

I still can't quite believe I can check that off my bucket list! A couple other random pictures of my last days in Delhi:

Tired Aboo after another round of wedding shopping for Ammi and Sadia

Tomorrow is the big move to Dehradun, which means frantic packing and lots of goodbyes today. I'm really excited to move to a new city, but also really sad to leave the family. This homestay has been wonderful and I'm sure I'll be back to visit them someday, although Aboo told us there was one condition of our return: we have to have our "handsome life partner" with us. Hmm...He said we should come back for Sadia's wedding in three or four years and that this is plenty of time for us to find a husband. Eek!! Mom and Dad, I might need your help after all...


love,
katie

  1. Hi Katie- The imagery is truly amazing! I'm thinking of you today and hope you find some comfort in being in a place that can build a Taj Mahal, but has to also find ways to deal with the fragileness of life. Have a good trip to the next part of your journey. Ann
