Golden Triangle Trip Report

Alan S

Hi All

I've been away a while, wandering. I'm not sure this is the right section of the forum. If not, I would appreciate advice and direction from the moderaters.

I would like to say thank you to all of the people here, particularly the ones who answered my various questions a few months ago when I was preparing for my Golden Triangle trip. This forum was a wonderful help and made a major difference to better planning and enjoying the visit.

I will be posting several reports on my blog, as part of a longer trip around the world. The first two related to India are:
Indira Gandhi Airport, Delhi

On Indian Roads
http://loraltravel.blogspot.com/2008...ian-roads.html

There is a selection of photos of the world's wonders, including the Taj Mahal, here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alan_s/...7604918996418/

Thanks again,

Funny and accurate description of Indira Gandhi airport. Loved the car ride account too. Is there more to come on India?

Alan S

Thanks. Yes, there will be a few more. Some on specific sites or places - Taj Mahal, Red Fort, Fatehpur Sikri, Amber Fort and similar, some on cities - Agra, Jaipur, Delhi - some on general things about India seen through the eyes of a first-time, briefly there, tourist. Hard to be sure until I write.

The overall trip, apart from India, had a "Temples and Pyramids" theme. If you look a few posts back in the blog you'll find Angkor Wat. Later will be Petra, Egypt, and Yucatan and places between.

Great blogs, Alan! I really liked your Taj photos - the Indian roads one reminded me of my friend who made an 'Overloading' series of photos to show her folks back home.
IG Airport, Delhi is very typical of many travellers' experiences, including my own a few months back - not a chair to rest your legs for 4 hours!
