Tadpoles, squirrels and the Taj Mahal

We headed off our overnight train directly to see the iconic Taj Mahal in Agra today.
It really is quite a grand and amazing structure, also because of the grounds around. Inside the mausoleum isn't that big, however it's difficult to really get a feel of it as it's a stream of people going in and out (we were there around 7:30am in the Off season, so I can't imagine what's it's like when it's actually busy!)

Lila's highlights include seeing the tadpoles in the water features outside the mausoleum, the squirrel she saw in the tree on the way and the crazy monkeys wrestling outside the entry gates.

I was also very excited to get semi cool water out of the tap (instead of warm/hot water) its slightly more mild at 41degrees today!Read more
