Victoria looks lovely in the front of Taj Mahal. Taj Mahal is such a wonderful building.
Here Victoria is shown inlay work detail on the Taj Mahal in Agra.

I think we got the photo we had expected. But no ponytail (surprise, surprise).
Her style in these days is really beautiful. The outfit with the white trousers is my favourite. I really enjoy her visit to India. Unfortunately we don't get a programm in detail, but so there is always a litte surprise. She will stay in India up to next sunday, right?

I still remember Haakon&MM posing on that bench infront of the Taj Mahal (these were quite romantic pics).
Anyway: Great pics of Victoria in India.
It's great to see she recycled the Escada dress she wore in Oslo!

Of course...my inner mind was drawing sooooo beautiful images...Victoria sitting on the bench alone doing the silly grin, she had done today, suddenly someone would stand behind her and would put his hands in front of her eyes. This someone would have showed the photographers to be silent. Then Victoria would have been a little frightened, would turn around and would see the face of certain someone. She would beam, they would hug and would get pics together on the bench done. 
Would have there been an easier way of acceptance...and easier way of cashing 100000000000000000 bonus points at once than a romantic surprise visit?
Am I a hopeless case, because I still want this sweet ending after 7 years?

Sadly it was inevitable, not like she should could say 'No I pass, I want to come back with Daniel someday.' Well technically she could've..

No, a measure of protection  Shoes would probably damage the marble too much...besides there seems to be a religious tradition

The tradition of removing the shoes before climbing the marble platform originates from pre Shahjahan times when the Taj was a Shiva Temple. Had the Taj originated as a tomb, shoes need not have to be removed because shoes are a necessity in a cemetery.

Does anyone know how her visits to the Swedish companies in India went? I would like to see photos, or a report of what she did during her visit to their offices. I imagine that the people were thrilled to have the chance to meet her.

Oh, what a wonderful idea...I would have loved that too. But I guess anything like that would neeeever happen.  So let's just hope Victoria won't be "Spinster before Taj Mahal" (what a hilarious title!  ) in ten year's time.
