It’s been more than a few weeks now, but I am finally getting around to putting up pictures from my trip to India. In later February, I spent a week traveling around the western part of India in the Rajasthan area. The highlight of the trip was the visit to the Taj Mahal; it was amazing.


I was at the Taj at sunset which has to be the best time to be there. It was crowded but the color of the sun on the white marble set against the blue sky was amazing.

This picture is from a Jain temple that I visited on the way from Jodhpur to Udaipur. The whole interior was carved with intricate patterns and figures.

This was a somewhat ‘typical’ street in Delhi although using the word typical is a bit of a misnomer since you never know what you will find on a street in India (up to and including a herd of cows in the middle of the city). I also liked how the power and telephone were just sort of hanging down into the street.

Photo from one of the rooms in the castle of the old Maharaja of Jodhpur. Meherangarh is a palace built high on a hill overlooking the city of Jodhpur. The Maharaja still runs the place but now lives in a nice estate on the outskirts of town. As they say, “it’s good to be the king”
