In search of Mumtaz (Part 1)
She inspired thousands to create the ultimate tribute to woman.
Her inspiration started after bearing the man - 14 children in a span of 18 years.
It took 22 years to complete and is over 243ft tall.
It is a masterpiece of symmetry & style - except where the man lies - in peace - next to his wife.
So we decided to go in search of Mumtaz!!!
Part 1 - On the road - Delhi to Agra

Part 1 - On the road - Delhi to Agra
Vishal , Tina & me undertook this quest.For the uninitiated - Tina is my sister and Vishal is one of my buddies from kindergarden!!
That's Vishal & Tina
Oh - that's Vishal & yours truly!! 
The road was calm, the travelling smooth, the air chilly as we left Delhi. Our first stop - the Gas station. Second Stop - highway dhaba for a heavy brunch. We covered the 200kms + distance in about 5 hours to land at the eastern gate of the Taj at 3 PM...
The last 2 kms we, covered by rickshaw!!!

In Esteemed Company - HBS 2K6
The first big party of 2006.
Funny - it couldn't wait till the Saturday - so Wednesday was it.
The venue(s) - Multiple - Dublin at the Maurya -> Laid Back Waters at Qutub - Climax till AM
The crowd - 100 students of the Harvard Biz school batch of 2K6 and us (Tina & Me)
How we got there - My buddy Vishal is part of that esteemed group. Their group is on a India Visit and last nite was when they did Delhi
Those guys'n'gals really know their party moves and light up a place as they hit it.
Quite a mixed bag of tricks - Americans , Chinese, Indians , ABCDs you name it - they were all there!!
Dublin was the warm-up area and after they saw themselves on CNBC giving views and getting some from our FM - they were charged.
Laid back waters was a lounge that they seemed to really dig before the finale at Climax. The clubs didn't disappoint our visitors and they headed home quite pooped ready for the next step of their pilgrimage- agra - jaipur etc.
The Indian guys amongst them (a few) were on their WIFING missions - nope this is not the computer connectivity - more like the ethereal types (Man-woman thing) !!!
Dunno if any of 'em got lucky :-)
I do believe this year is going to rock!!
