As you can see from the pic., we visited the Taj Mahal today. Yeap, it's pretty much one of the 7 wonders of the world. It didn't look real. We got to go inside and see the actual tomb. The guy who built it had two other wives buried on the property, but their tombs looked like dog houses compared to this.
We had a lot of fun trying to seek pics of people without them knowing it. We think this guy resembled Jesus. The funnier thing was that we started to realize people were doing the same thing to us. They would walk by us and have their camera under their arm and we would hear it click.
One guy just walked between us and posed while his friend took the picture. Then his friend came up to me and asked if I was Japanese!!!!!!! My family is probably laughing b/c we always talk about our little squinty eyes. I wasn't wearing sunglasses and I was squinting, but clearly, for many reasons this man is confused.
#1) I look like a Sumo wrestler compared to any Japanese person, male or female. They are tiny. #2) My hair is brown w/ tons of poof. Their hair is black and flat.
#3) I have blue eyes. They typically don't.
This is a picture of a women scooping up with her hands fresh...well just look closely and you can tell. They gather it, dry it, and use it for fuel for fires.
Cats go through our garbage...Cows go through theirs.
These are cute little kids riding home from school in an auto rickshaw.
Also, our lease fell through with our landlords. As of right now, we don't have anywhere to move into once our training is over. Please pray that something will open up and we'll be able to start our work. I'm getting a little tired of this tourist stage.
I'll post again next week.
