Indian Railways:2, Rachel:0

   So Sleeper Class on 24-33 hour train rides is awful. Don't let anyone, ever, try to convince you otherwise.

This is going to be a short and sweet post. We're all exhausted from our trip and need to get in bed for volunteering in the morning. Here's a taste of the past week:

Sunrise over the Hooghly from the Howrah Bridge:

Vidyasagar Setu Bridge:
The little boats that we took to ride on Hooghly.


During the 33 hour, no AC train ride to Jaipur:
The phrase trapped like a duck in a pen came to mind...
(Carrie: or cramped like a duck on a pond, either way)


We got to ride elephants up to the fort!


Holy Cow! India! 
(Sorry, it was on a magnet Katie bought)


The Taj Mahal
It even looked fake when we were there.


I had us take this picture to show how big it is!
