10 days of india in 30 seconds...

just kidding.

a quick note to let you know that we made it back to korea safe and sound after a LOOOONG stretch of travel time. we left india at 6am wednesday and arrived in seoul around 6am thursday. over the course of the trip we spent time in kuala lumpur, malaysia/new delhi, india/mumbai, india/bangkok, thailand/seoul, SK and everywhere in between. needless to say, we're exhausted.

no time now to recap all 10 days, but wanted to leave you with a few shots. actually, the only shots i took on the trip. :/ i told you i'm terrible with the camera! geesh. john took about 3 million pictures, though, so don't worry. we've got you covered. the highlight of the trip for me, as cliche as possible, was undoubtedly the taj mahal.one of the world's wonders for a reason, folks. pictures don't do it justice. seriously breathtaking. get there and see it for yourself!oh don't mind me. i'm just sweating my butt off on the steps of the taj in delhi, which i swear must be the hottest place on earth. thought i was gonna melt.

one of the most baffling things about india for me was walking down the front steps of a thing of beauty like the taj and straight into a scene from slumdog millionaire. utter poverty & completely unsanitary conditions. none of the places we stayed were safe to traverse after sunset. here's a shot that, again, will not do the real thing justice:monsoon season. bleck.that's it for now. lots more to come. everyone be well.
