Hello Everybody!
It's been officially a week since I've left Winnipeg, and has it ever been crazy! Back in Winnipeg I actually liked going to saunas, but India gives the word sauna a whole new meaning. First couple of days were okay, I can't remember the last time I woke up before noon, but it seems jetlag got rid of that problem rather fast.. ... . I can't say I'm used to the weather yet, but I am finally adjusted to the time change.
Man have we ever done alot of stuff so far. Seeing Ghandi's Memorial, the small city of Fatehpur Sikri home to Akbar the Great and his 3 wives and 850 concubines, the Taj (I feel that by calling it "the Taj" it sounds more swanky). This morning we rode up to the Amber Fort on Elephants and that was absoulutly ridicoulous!!! Man, it was fun and all but I was actually like praying for my life! It was pretty scary but awesome at the same time! I've gotten used to all the hasseling of what seems to be "good deals" that sellers are shoving in our faces, but nonetheless I'm hoping Darjeeling will be a little bit less tourist-y so I can just chill.
So far everything has been crazily busy and go go go, time is passing by and alot of culture has been taken in. Even though it has only been a week, I can say that this trip would not have been the same without the group of amazing people I'm with...it makes for a more ..interesting.. time! But I feel very blessed and look forward to flying tomorrow morning!!
Until then,
TOODLES!!
