Jun 28 - After the rains

Sat, Jun 28 - The monsoons came while I was in Agra and practically shut the place down. The hotel where I had lunch flooded and there was over a foot of standing water on most of the roads. It made for a very interesting afternoon. Here's another video I shot while we were driving in the car - you can see how a lot of people live. Very very poor. Some unique things are that you can get your hair but by a sidewalk barber. They just set up a chair and a mirror and people some for haircuts. Costs about ten rupees (a quarter!).
