Bikaner 13/1/2007 Dear Youming Have arrived in Bikaner leaving Delhi behind us. Unfortunately there just wasn’t enough time to see everything in only four days. Outside Bikaner’s city walls are miles of desert wilderness. Tomorrow I look forward to exploring the wall itself. The sandstone architecture is said to be incredible. We are also going to take a camel ride through some of the desert. Can you picture me on a camel? I’ll make sure that I have lots of photographs taken. After three days here the next stop is Jaipur. Love Lisa

Delhi 8/1/2007 Dear Mum and Dad We have just arrived in India and are in the bustling and exciting city of Delhi. This morning we visited the Red Fort. There we found magnificent palaces mosques and splendid buildings. I could have spent hours there. This afternoon amongst other things we visited the India Gate---a memorial for Indian soldiers lost at war earlier this century. The gates were the largest I have ever seen. Wish you were here Lisa

21/1/2007 Dear Jinao So far so good. Once we arrived in Agra we went straight to the Taj Mahal. I have never seen anything so wonderful. They said that it would look something like Humuyan’s Tomb（Delhi）and it does! There really is nothing more amazing than the brilliant white of the Taj shimmering in the daylight. Apparently the pollution poses a real threat to it. We really covered a great deal in three days here. It’s been an amazing experience and I’m sorry that we’ll be flying home this evening. Bye for now. Lisa

Yesterday we visited the City Palace and the Jantar Mantar. After two days here the next stop is Agra where I look forward to visiting the fort and the Taj. See you soon Lisa
