New Delhi: July 4 through July 6 &
July 8 through July 9

Arrived in New Delhi as planned on July 4.  A city like no other I've ever seen.  From New Delhi, I visited Jaipur and Agra.  Both were interesting but The Taj Mahal at Agra is absolutely breath taking.  On July 9, I departed New Delhi by air bound for Srinagar in Kashmir for a week in the mountains on a houseboat.

I've seen some interesting sights, visited great shops and enjoyed delicious, authentic Indian cuisine.
