Some left the ship at Cochin (on a ship's tour) and flew to the Taj Mahal, spend two nights and then met up with the ship when we got to Mumbai. All of us had great times - it was so great that Joel and I want to return. You are right a cruise is a good way to get a taste.Jackie and Joel Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14074129927177165084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7011248318265372337.post-25063129491632089742015-05-05T22:24:25.362-07:002015-05-05T22:24:25.362-07:00Hi Rhonda and thanks for the visit!

I remember when I first moved to Korea and the humidity started around the middle of May and lasted until mid September. I thought I had died and gone to hell....haha. Four shower a day and new clothes each time was a daily event. My body handles it a bit better now, but not by much. Sounds like you two are having a fantastic time!

He says that if I could just magically transport him to the grounds of the Taj Mahal and skip all the surrounding, he might consider it. Perhaps this cruise will be the key.Michele {Malaysian Meanders}https://www.blogger.com/profile/18313351463568423694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7011248318265372337.post-13133185636939389722015-05-03T19:43:34.174-07:002015-05-03T19:43:34.174-07:00At least your computer hasn't melted yet and y...At least your computer hasn't melted yet and you can still share with us.
