An OCD Maharaja



After we arrived Agra several hours later, we were dropped off at "THE CRYSTAL INN." It is classified as a 3 star hotel but doesnt lack in any of the amenities. The hotel also has a rooftop restaurant with affordable prices and a massage center to boot. Nothing shady here folks. Save that for China.
It was quickly approaching dinner time but we were wanting to venture out before dinner. We threw down our luggage and just took of on foot toward local civilization. The reason for our change of travel was because our car driver was only paid to drive us this day. We would be responsible for anything extra.

Much to our surprise, we ventured out to the shopping district and just so happened to come across our driver. We offered to take us to some nice shopping places that Indians loved. Note: Whenever a driver offers to take you to a government shop- this means they recieve commission off of you and the prices are somewhat higher that at local shops. We found this out later.

At any rate, finishing out the night with Dal Tadka Curry with Roti and a side of a thai massage is always nice.
