Because my internet use is limited here, I'm going to be super duper brief...I'll go into more details with crazy stories once I'm back.
So we reached New Delhi without any problems and my relatives (my only relatives in India) were able to find us easily at the airport. We spent 3 days in Delhi and they showed us around every where and they fed us sooooooooooooooooooooooooo much food. The 2nd day they hooked us up with a tour bus that took us to all the main sites. I really liked the Lotus temple, Qutub Minar and Humayan's tomb. I'm so grateful to my family for taking care of us both.
The last night in Delhi, we met up with Lauren's friend to watch the Pakistan-India cricket game. We ended up having to watch it in a fancy mall because everyplace was super packed. But it was still a great atmosphere. I ended up go back home because I was a little tired but Lauren went off with her friend. Unfortunately Lauren's friend got me a lemonade at the mall (which I forgot would have tap water) so I ended up becoming very sick...I'm still still trying to recover now.
We headed to Agra in the morning and saw the Taj Mahal (I was still pretty sick). I went to the Taj when I was very little but it was just a structure to me then...this time I was able to fully appreciate it....definitely recommend the Taj Mahal....I have more stories about my day in Agra :)
So next was Jaipur...I'm currently on the 3rd day in Jaipur. Jaipur is such a great city. It puts Delhi to shame. So far we walked through the crazy markets (where people love to stare at Lauren), saw Hawal Mahal, went on a sketchy adventure, saw Jaipur Fort/Palace (amazing...also made an amazing friend there who hooked us up with her driver), and saw Amer Palace. Last night was the final world cup cricket mach which we got to see in an country club. It was so packed with people and everyone was so excited that even I was getting really into the game. You may have hear, India won...which means dancing on the streets, fireworks and just insanity (awesome insanity). Still sick, but totally loving Jaipur.
Hopefully I'll be able to fill you guys in again soon!
