午餐后, 下着毛毛雨, 本来是去泰姬陵(Taj Mahal), 导游做了些更改, 泰姬陵没有遮盖, 不方便参观. 我们改为参观阿格拉堡(Agra Fort).

After lunch, it was drizzling, we were supposed to visit the Taj Mahal, the tour guide made an adjustment, because of at the Taj Mahal no cover for rain, and was not suitable for visit. We went to Agra Fort instead.

我们都很担心, 一至同意, 明天不论下雨或下雪, 一定要去泰姬陵.

We were worried and decided that regardless of rain or snow tomorrow, we must go to the Taj Mahal.
