The 'Aha' Experience

Its been a complete 3 days we are in Gwalior and ended up almost all the important spots like Quila and Scindhiya Palace but still we couldnt get enough or a wholesome experience. In particular me.
I usually dont have a penchant for Caves, architecture or monuments. I mean that was what i had gathered from my experience. You take Elephentia Caves , i liked the boat ride in the sea but not the caves. I had been a dozen times to Mandu but what i like is the scenic arrangments but not architecture really. Same goes for Buland Darwaza in Fatehpur Sikri and Agra Fort. Sanchi, mmmm i like the road ride of 25 kms north east from Bhopal to there. Bhojpur, i guess 25 times and still counting but i go straight to river there. Then what, Bhim-Betka! I am a Vertigo so i like to test myself with the huge rocks and depth which encompasses there.
I know many historians will almost kill me if i said, i liked the night out on marine drive in Mumbai than all the above. So i wont do my opinion public.

But there is an expection. And without exceptions individual behaviour woudnt be that exciting. Would it be?
So Nikhra, Daswani,Dr. Marsh,Anshul Jain and I were in the long queue at security check-in for TajMahal. Though we all were a perfect team to land up in famous Agra Asylum instead!
No..no. were pretty decent and all. But the way we all were dressed made us look real tourists. Nikhra is a good singer and all but i insist him to keep shut most of the time. Dr. Marsh suits up to his Adiwasi reputation in holi dance fest and thats the reason for the reverent denotation 'Dr.' came from for which he endows me forever. Daswani, what can i say? Ok let me simplify it. Have you ever felt a strong urge to hit some one  without reason just because you dont like their face or may be anything else. Well I do feel that a lot in case of Daswani. Irony is that he thinks that i am a very good friend of him but inside i know i am looking for a moment every now and then to hit him just like that.

Ok i know  i am mean! But they are also not proverbial " dhudh ka dhula" .
So where was I. Ya in the queue!
So we checked in after hustling with the crowd and though the next thing is Taj Mahal. I particularly wasnt that interested but you know we were in Agra and it being among 7 wonders and lots of hush hush! That's why i was there.
I was loosing my patience more that ever beacause it was a complete 30 minutes walking distance we had to cover and still i dont see a sign of the monument. I would banter Dr. Marsh for taking me here and ridiculing him by my questions about where is it? How far is it? How much do we have to walk? Is it in this town or somewhere else?
Neekhra was laughing and doing his singing stuff in between. I just didnt look a Daswani. Anshul is a cool dude and was also irritated like me. It was so hot that day.

But we approached a archaic entrance which was supposed to be the gateway for the monument. I went closer to it and what i saw is inexplicable in words! The complete view of Taj- Mahal in front of me. Majestic, Wonderful and out of the world experience!
I couldnt have ever imagined that a man made thing could be that Beautiful. The 'Aha' Experience. All of my friends and foreigners had the same look when they saw it. Unbelievable.

How can some one absorb it in a glance. It took me complete 5 hours to seep it into my mind.
The Best!!!
