May 21, Saturday, up at 4:30 am, to go to Taj Mahal before dawn.  And I wasn't disappointed, the light from the east simply lit up the white marble and inlayed colored stones. It was so beautiful, irradiated.  The guide was so right that the first light would show it off best, and we were among the first people there. No crowds.  We just sat looking at it and taking pics til the monkeys and crowds arrived.  Then to the  hotel, shower, breakfast, packing and by nine we were off to JAIPUR .  On the way we stopped at a fort, again beautiful red sandstone and in the residence there faint remnants of paintings in the alcoves.  In five hours we were in Jaipur. On USA roads it would have been about a two to three hour trip, but at home we wouldnt have to dodge rickshaws, cows wandering or laying in the street right of ways, people pushing handcarts...
