Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror 24 and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it—not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it—they will be blessed in what they do.
~ James 1:22-25 NIV

Day 9 Agra ~ Oct 19th

We finally arrived in Agra about 5:30am after our bus was an hour late. It was a nice bus, but the driver honked his horn the whole way.

I don't think I've mentioned it yet, but the driving and rodes are CRAZY here. There seems to be no rules; they drive on the left side and there is many forms to travel in (walking, car, bicycle, motorbike, bicycle rickshaw, motorbike rickshaw, horse rickshaw, taxi though very different than what we know). There are people everywhere. Even though they drive on the right, they drive all over the road and honk to let others know that they are passing or to get out of there way. I'll try to post some pictures we when I get back.

We got to hotel amar about 6am and slept from 6:30-9:30. We met at 11 went to lunch and had a grilled cheese (it did taste a bit different and there is a high chance it was goat cheese). The Taj Mahal was closed today, so we went to Agra Fort, a marble and Persian rug place and watched them make. We vusted a few other other places. 

The most exciting us we are sharing the Lord with our tour guide, Monika. She was able to receive a New Testament Hindi bible tonight from AJ.

We're going to the Taj Mahal in the morning early, so good night!
