Pictures from our Taj Visit. Everybody should know about Shah Jehan, beloved wife, yadda yadda.. the Taj is that gorgeous with ridiculously intricate stone designs. Flat gorgeous. The addmission fee for foreigners are around RM100 (as opposed to RM10 for locals) and you get to spend as long as you want in the compound. The weather was alright , a little hot but nothing compared to home. You can't mess with a girl who lives in KL and traipse around Labuan weather with the best of them. Bring it on! (yells Nella from her shady, airconditioned office)
That's the Taj's side view. Which is no difference from the front view, lateral view, dorsal view. Genius architecture that it is.

Terrorizing the locals for a picture. The shoe cover was provided with every admission fee for foreigners. Or you could opt to take your shoes off. We like the very stylish covers. Tres chic, non?
View from my hotel rooftop. Yes, that's the Taj. Woke up at 6am to watch the Taj at sunrise. Hence the bleary, basi look. Ignore me and look at the Taj already, will you.
Siblings at a photostudio with the Taj Mahal backdrop. They're on discount. Eiffel Tower backdrop was also on discount but that would be too cheesy, we think.Stay tune for the next installment where I shall post more (disturbing) picture of myself having a nuclear implosion (like having a blast, only more fun) in India.

only foreigners have to wear the ultra chic shoe covers?
eh cop.. gambar yg bwh skali tuh, yg spek besar, pakai hair band tuh sape? ko pegi ngan sape lg nih? boleh describe ahli2 lawatan tersebut?
ati: well they give you the cover when you pay for the entrance. it's up to you to wear em or not but essentially it's shoes off in the immediate compound of the Taj. and seeing how only non locals were given the covers, it was all around: barefoot=locals, dumpy (yet v.chic) shoes covers=foreigners.
am i even making sense?
afzan: that was the bolivian pop star that shared the same tour bus with us. we became friends somewhere in Uttar Pradesh. we took pictures with her with high hopes that we could one day sell them on eBay. and plus, she was an extremely humble, funny, exciting, gorgeous, talented and gracious person. you dont meet many of those.
why you ask?
