A wee bit of trouble on the main. Seems the flat shroud lines took a while to untwist for full main opening.

A Brazilian Churrascaria

 This is a "mini mart" at an Esso gas station -- espresso, lunch items, etc. Note: you can even buy some wine ;=)

 Little Boy Purple has found true love with the gorgeous Brazilian beauties. He is reconsidering staying in a Brazilian cache. Maybe there is one near the beach?
© <jsk>
All that time in a little plastic carrying bag has made our friend very hungry. The "Mixed Grill" was spectacular!
© <jsk>
 Little Boy Purple is very happy to be relaxing with a good Brazilian beer.
© <jsk>
 The Volvo showroom was very European in design.
© <jsk>
And very similar to some of the best malls in the States.
© <jsk>
 and elegant...
© <jsk>
 The stores were very chic.
© <jsk>
The design was very open, with shops along the perimeter of a central open area with tall trees, waterfalls, etc.
© <jsk>
 The mall was lush with greenery and running water.
© <jsk>
 We decided to stop in the mall for a bite to eat.
© <jsk>
The Little Boy Purple was not happy about being placed in a cache alongside a major highway, so I am glad we did not find the container.
© <jsk>
 We drove north of Sao Paulo to Campinas in search of a cache. We were at the spot, but found no container (it was night, as you can see).

Probably older than the fort...
© <jsk>
 Vendors set up on the way into the fort. (This seemed very tame compared to Mont Saint-Michel!)
© <jsk>
 Children doing what children do... whilst on tour ;=)
© <jsk>
Completed in 1648 by Shah Jahan, this fort was a major display of Mughal power. The Indian flag flying over the Lahore Gate was a national desire to signify Independence from Britain.
© <jsk>
 The street/marketplace vendors always seemed to have beautiful presentations of their wares.
© <jsk>
 Built (1980-1986) to resemble a lotus flower, it is set among 9 pools of water, and surrounded by gardens.
© <jsk>
The guard ensures the eternal flame for the Unknown Soldier is honored.
© <jsk>
 This 42m high "All India War Memorial" bears the names of 90,000 soldiers.
© <jsk>
 A street barber ;=)
© <jsk>
© <jsk>
 The 7m pillar predates the Qutb Minar. Mysteriously, this 98% pure iron pillar does not rust. Scientists are not sure how such an item was cast 1600 years ago.
© <jsk>
 The ~73m tower consists of 5 stories, tapering to 2.5m diameter at the top.
© <jsk>
With an impressive diameter of 15m at the base, the red sandstone is adorned with carvings.
© <jsk>
 Beneath the ground are 24 rays emanating outward... both for support and for the 24 hours in a day.
© <jsk>
© <jsk>
An ambitiuos project to create another tower -- only this time, twice the size of the Qutb Minar. You can see how far they got by the time Ala-ud-dim died...
© <jsk>
 There was a 10-minute ritual of blessing elements on this memorial to the founder of the Hare Krishna movement.
© <jsk>
 The conch is understood as the source of all existence -- a cosmic womb, for when the conch is blown, it is said to emulate the primordial sound Aum (Om) from which all else emanates.
© <jsk>
A service of song and worship was taking place.
© <jsk>
 People would tie a piece of yarn to the "jalis" (carved marble screen) and make a wish.
© <jsk>
 Dung is laid out to dry... it is used as an important fuel source for cooking, etc.

 This is said to mimic the mosque at Mecca. A Qoranic inscription reads: "The world is a bridge, pass over it but build no house upon it. He who hopes for an hour may hope for an eternity."

 The Hall of Public Audiences
© <jsk>
The amount of carving and detail work is amazing. Even more so, this city/palace was full of symbols from all major religions.
© <jsk>
 Yes, believe it or not, we are actually driving on the main road through the village. A bit crowded, eh?
© <jsk>
 The abandoned capital city of Fatehpur Sikri, must have been quite the scene in its heyday (1570-1586)

 Artisans practice the age-old tradition used for doing the inlay work on the Taj itself.
© <jsk>
 Agra Fort began life in 1565 as a principally military structure. It is hard to appreciate how "thick" the outer walls are without being there.
© <jsk>
I do not think I would want to be an army trying to attack the gate...
© <jsk>
 The Taj is magnificent from any angle.
© <jsk>
 The great symbol of India, Shah Jahan
© <jsk>
© <jsk>
 A close-up of the carvings reveals the craftsmanship sought during the construction (1631-1653 a.d.)
© <jsk>
 Each of the minarets are tilted outward -- if they collapse, they will fall away from the Taj!
© <jsk>
The inlay work is exquisite. If you shine a flashlight on the reddish stones, they glow orange as the light is conducted.
© <jsk>
 This first view of the Taj Mahal takes your breath away, as it is perfectly framed in the entryway.
© <jsk>
 The morning mist gives the Taj an ethereal glow.
© <jsk>
I was told the each of the 22 small domes on the roof represent a year of construction
© <jsk>
 The scroll work and writing is all inlay -- being larger at the top to compensate for perspective.
