January, 5 2009 Yes, we have had a great time in India and nothing is like it. The buildings here are the most beautiful in the world. I thank Shan Jahan for making the Taj Mahal for it is marvelous. The marble in there is stunningly perfect and made us want to go to Jaipur and dig some up ourselves. While in our stay we witnessed another great masterpiece. The stone put in to it was simply flattering. This masterpiece is known as The Gateway of India. The structure was at least 100 feet tall and when the sun was descending it created an immense shadow. Why it was so big I thought if I climbed to the top stars were in our reach.

January, 8 2009 When we traveled to Mumbai it completely blew us away. The city was absolutely enormous. Walking from one end of the city to another seemed to take days. While outside we musn’t remind ourselves of the heat. Every time we did the atmosphere around us got some degrees hotter. Thank god it is not summer for it would be a lot hotter. Here in India there are boatfuls of ore and iron. India should be making billions but most still remains in poverty strangely. January, 9 2009 Then the time came when we had to hop aboard our vessel and pay our tributes to the poor souls who died making this beautiful country. Leaving felt like losing a part of my heart. I will never forget the extraordinary places and landmarks. Good bye, India.
