Yes, I was a one of the 7 wonders... be jealous

We woke up early, early, early this morning and headed to Agra (about 3 hours away by car) to see the amazing Taj Majal. This palace has such an amazing history to it and I don't think I can do it justice right now because it is late and i am sleepy, but I wanted to post the pics so that everyone can see them, I'll update the rest later.

Outside gates of the
Taj Majal


Pictures do not do it justice!


Such a beautiful sight

Christine and I are really excited... We are at the
TAJ MAJAL!!!


All of the people were offering to take our picture... but we have mastered the self
portrait... sort of



The boys we are traveling with! So much fun and such goofballs... they definitely have kept their eyes on us and kept us safe


So fun!


They make everyone take off their shoes at the
Taj, but because we're foreigners they gave us they slippers to put over it... Thank God for that... See below to see why.


Christine dying from the sun... you have no idea how hot we are... sit in a sauna for 5 hours and then you may know


Random families kept asking to have their
picture taken with us... it was very odd... we were like zoo animals LOL


Me in one of the guest quarters' halls


and Christine :)


This is why I say thank God about being allowed to keep our shoes on... And people wonder why feet gross me out.


We rode back from the
Taj in a horse carriage... This is the three girls loving the fact that we will soon be in air conditioning :)


You could also go by camel to the
Taj... we called this camel row.



After, we went to a five star hotel in Agra for food... this is the man who opened our car door... His mustache is absolutely amazing!
