Day 8: The land of palaces

Having escaped Agra without prompting a Sky newsflash (tourists are currently a very prized possession amongst the locals - 8 missing in the past week), we finally find ourselves in the increasingly fashionable Rajasthan via a pitstop at the stunning deserted city Fatepuhr Sikri. (Note to my former crewmates: built by Moghul Akbar no less!) Talking of the lauded, we seem to have joined them - arriving at our dazzling white palace this evening to a personal fanfare and a plethora of turbaned, slippered footmen. All bodes well.....
