Man, we're melting here. If I keep this update to the point, the following items are the main things on our plate right now:
* Northern Indian food doesn't touch that of the south
* Mangos are just coming into season
* It's hot
Since our last update (Varanasi, where it was hot) we've generally headed west. To Chitrakut (just a night's stop to recover from a day on the bus), then another day on the bus to Khajuraho, where it was hot. We stayed there and visited its famous temple carvings - 10th century, lots of creative sex scenes including acrobatics and even animals. Then to Orchha, a small village with very little to do. Loved it here so stayed longer than any of our previous stops. It was hot here, too.
Then, off to Delhi. We had to visit some embassies to take care of logistics. Delhi was hot.
Today, we traveled to Agra. In the morning, we're going to drop by the Taj Mahal. It's pretty hot. In the evening, we're off on a night train into Rajasthan. Time for some good old Mughal palaces, hilltop forts, etc. Not sure, but my guess is that it will be hot there. We're slowing down our pace for the next couple weeks.
That's all for now.
