VARANASI, BURDEN OF BEING
Back to Katmendou organized and we said farewell to Yves and his wife Katmendou Garden House, (thank you Yves was amazing) We fly to Varanasi. Nice flight but immediately on landing the aircraft heavy rain fell on eastern India ... The taxi ride is unforgettable! There are at least 50 cm of water in the street, bicycles fall, cars callent, all became river. 
Arriving near the old city, the taxi leaves us because he can not go further. In sandals and with our big bags we have 15 minutes to walk to find our hotel. We déhenbulont in dirty alleys, mud mixed with cow shit and waste and I do not even talk about rats and cockroaches. Finally found our hotel, we pay a room with a balcony overlooking the Ganges, relief at the moment! For two days it's pluis is monochrome, it is sad and our room a corpse floats before our eyes while the children play in water at 30 meters away, that women wash their clothes and that men perform their ablutions religious ... what a sight! even when we walk on different Gaths (sort of palate with lots of steps) along the Ganges to still enjoy the Hindu pilgrims who come to wash their sins in the Ganges. Varanasi is one of the holiest cities of India. The Indians come there to die by cremation open to achieve moksha there is the interuption of the cycle of reincarnation. I'll spare you the details morbid but I can tell you that we are somewhat depressed over time. Welcome to India ... 
JAIPUR, INDIA WITH RECONCILIATION
The train arrives after 3 hours late ... it's not too bad we do not work:) Arrived in Jaipur in Rajasthan a rickshaw brings us to our hotel Pearl Palace, we are under the charms of this place! The ceiling takes off with taste and all Handpainted is wonderful. The rooftop restaurant is also very original. Each chair wrought iron was made one by one by proprio.Elles represent a character or an animal. It's tasteful. Here we take a kind of package and visit the old pink city, the castles and the Maharaja of Amber Fort, which was for me the highlight of the day!
Finally, in Jaipur, a hearty breakfast we lacked a long time.
AGRA TAJ MAHAL AND THE
We take an overnight train to Agra last! Another story and happier than Varanasi. The Taj Mahal! The Taj Mahal is beautiful at sunrise with almost one in his garden ... The good side of the monsoon and the hot weather is that there is almost no tourists. Our rickshaw driver, Taju, led us also visit the Agra Fort. This fort was built in 1565, early for military purposes. It was transformed into a palace of white marble to be imprisoned for eight years, the builder of the Taj Mahal. From prison he could admire the Taj Mahal. Not romantic!? Tomorrow at 5:00 am a train will take us to Jaipur.
