Qutb Minar

On the agenda was a trip to Qutb Minar. This giant tower is the tallest stone tower in India.


As a frog, I don't truely appreciate the need to reach for the sky. I am quite content with a nice pond, a good lily pad, and my trusty fishing pole. Yet I must say that this tower was quite impressive.


The mosque on the site was also one of the largest I have yet seen. Though it is in ruins now, it must have been quite the thing in its day.


The finale really came though when I got to see some planes taking off right over the tower. Reminded me that it is only a few days more until Papa arrives.
