Day 1 was off to Delhi- no mishaps. Then on to Varanasi- evening on the Ganges followed by dawn on the Ganges.
Masses of people everywhere. White cow sitting quietly in a shop. Front row to see noisy,colourful ceremony of celebration. Fake sadus dressed up to get money from tourists! Funeral pyres burning high- sort of mini Dantes inferno.
Then on to Khajuraho- discovered carvings showing positions I had not considered physically possible. Davina said that I should be careful in what I wished for as maybe I would come back as a woman in my next life!
Now on train to Agra to see the Taj Mahal. Staying at Oberoi- our one bit of real luxury.
Kemble bear was very excited- especially at Khajaruha-but fell in love with Indian ladies at the railway station and absconded- good luck!
