Meet Rachel.

She wins the award for first visitor to India.

She hopes to one day come work with us, so we spent the two weeks she was with us showing her the ropes and doing some sightseeing around north India.

There were many things on our list of things to do and we somehow managed to squeeze them all in while she was here!

See the Himalayas

Be wrapped up in a sari

Tour New Delhi

Adam at India Gate in the heart of New Delhi

Adam got into this whole “Let’s dip in front of Indian monuments” thing

Jumping pics are just necessary!

This poor guard. I couldn’t tell if he loved or hated his job!

India Gate – remembering those who fought and died in World War 1

Old Delhi #chaos

Brownie points if you can see the cute little boys watching a nearby cricket game

A beautiful mosque called Jama Masjid

We somehow ended up walking on the side of the median during crazy traffic

The Red Fort in New Delhi

The fort grounds just kept going and going and going…

Taj Mahal (because who comes this close and doesn’t visit the Taj?!)

Rachel’s one big request – to see the Taj Mahal

Like I said…Adam really got into dipping me

So thankful for this girl’s friendship!

Couldn’t leave without a crazy group picture!

The Taj Mahal is a stunning historical monument well worth the travel and line standing to go see. But the people of India dressed in their finest saris and turbans – they are the ones who make India beautiful.
