The caves at Ajunta. You can't really see it, but this is me standing on top of the mountain overlooking the canyon, river, and caves.
The half-moon of the canyon. You can see the really pretty waterfall.
Inside the canyon. This pictures was taken from the bridge crossing the water. You can see the caves in the distance.

Here we are standing on top of the huge temple that was carved at Ellora. Atop this temple are room with giant towers that extend into the sky. This temple was carved from the top to the bottom over several generations. Each generation passed down the plans in order to assure that the temple was built correctly.

One day, Tom and I couldn't handle the flies anymore. We went on a killing rampage. 7 flies dead in less than 10 minutes
