The Olympics are coming to town

London is crazy at the moment with the build up to the Olympics. It's  a bit busy and stressful, but there is an excited buzz in the air as well as a lot of flags!  Here are some pictures from central London last night.

The cargo arrives

We had waited for over a month, but last week we collected the shopping we did in India from the dock! After lots of last minute stress, import drama and hiring van faff, we had the excitement of being reunited with the brilliant stuff we bought what seems like a long long time ago....

White Marble wow

We saw the Taj Mahal! Still can't believe we were there! We went at Sunset, it was pretty special.

 

Driving to The Taj Mahal

We drove from Delhi to Agra, It turned out to be a 5 hour drive so loads of time for photos! We got to the Taj Mahal just as it was closing, but it was sooo worth the panic.

A day in Udaipur

Unwinding in Udaipur

After a very hectic time in Delhi, we headed to Udaipur for some relaxation!

We stayed in a beautiful 18th century palace called Devi Gahr in the middle of nowhere, it was perfect!

Here are some pictures.
