Agra is my kind of town

I've been laying low and battling bacteria...


The heat dictates that you plan your outdoor excursions to coincide with power faliures - without AC, there is no reason to stay in your hotel room.

I took a stroll to the corner and got caught up in a funeral procession. (See photos) It was so casual that, at first, I did't know where the crowd was headed or why. I finally spotted the deceased, covered with flowers on the stretcher. (Whoa, 'scuse me, wrong parade!)

Later, I took a ride on the river behind the Taj Mahal and saw the funeral pyre.
