We were up early for a scenic bus ride to Agra and the Taj Mahal. A few of the things along the road: monkeys on stick leashes doing back flips; camels in costumes; cows, of course; monkeys jumping around buildings; women in beautiful saris on the back of motorcycles; interesting car 'lanes'; and driving rules that seem to be merely suggestions. We are currently at lunch then on the road again for the 5 hour drive back to Shanti Home. The team is in good spirits and absorbing all of the sights, sounds and smells of India. Tomorrow is our morning flight to Varanasi.

  1. People burning dead bodies? Wow we sure live secluded lives and take for granted our life in Christ. I am encouraged to do a mission trip myself someday. What a great experience for anyone especially our youth.
