So here we are, at last, at the Taj Mahal! I feel like this has been a grand pilgrimage, not only because it took four hours to drive here this morning, but also because already I've been in India over a month and have only just managed to meet this important benchmark of Indian tourism! While not seen during sunrise, sunset, moonlight, or any of the other times I was told I had to see this monument, I was still stunned by its godly glow and universal tractor beam. It's true what they say that it's almost worth it just to see people's reactions as they walk through that first gate and get their first glimpse.
