Pictures!

I was finally able to find a strong enough wireless signal to upload some photos, so here are a few...

This is the view from our hotel window in Delhi. This photo was taken in early morning, so the street was still calm.

This is the Red Fort is Old Delhi. The formidable walls are made of red sandstone, though you can't appreciate the color as much in the morning haze of clouds and smog

Many of the structures inside the Red Fort were made of white marble with really beautiful Islamic features: arches, intricate inlays and domes:

This is Humayan's tomb, built by the Moghul ruler's widow. As you can see, IT'S HUGE.

This is a Bahai temple. I don't know much about the religion, except that it has only been around since the 1800s and it has a very universalist doctrine. This "Lotus" temple is surrounded by expansive, well-maintained gardens. Hundreds of people line up to go inside where absolute silence is strictly maintained, and people of all religions are invited to meditate or pray. I think its probably the most peaceful place in Delhi.

This is Agra Fort which was very impressive and well-maintained, and especially beautiful at sunset.

Again, the interior structures, like this public meeting hall, are made of white marble:

The interiors are very ornate, with inlaid precious stones, and gold leaf paint:

We saw lots of monkeys!:

I took about a million photos of the Taj Mahal, because you really just can't help it when you're there, it's just so amazing. But this is my favorite one, and probably my favorite photo from the whole trip:

And some more Taj Mahal pictures:

More soon!
