Introduction to India

In May I took an organized trip to India through Friendly Planet Tours called "The Taj Mahal Express." An express, it was. We visited three cities (Agra, Jaipur and Delhi) over five days. Flying to India is a 15-hour ordeal each way, so I almost felt like I spent as much time in the sky as I did on the ground. But it was all worth it. To me, India was not a vacation, but a field trip -- an opportunity to see how others live. What I saw made me smile, cry, cringe, laugh, and give thanks to God. I carried a small notepad in my camera bag so I could record stories and observations while they were still fresh. I've posted them here so you can see India through my eyes.
