Gurgaon - Agra - Gurgaon

Me and Eva drove for a weekend trip to Agra, actually original plans were a bit different but eventually in last minute decision we switched to this one and we just drove off. The drive plan was basically Gurgaon - faridabad - Mathura Road - Mathura - Agra and included one tea break in between. The Gurgaon - faridabad leg took some time as it was a working day and morning traffic was still on, plus the roads in faridabad are no better than gurgaon. Once we crossed faridabad and reached NH 2 it was pretty smooth with very good road conditions.
The stay in Agra was nice, thanks to May and Man, Eva's very sweet friends, who made sure that our stay in Agra remains hassle free and very pleasant :)
Taj Mahal and Agra fort were the first two things early morning next day and we really enjoyed the early morning atmosphere and we were back before the heat gets going. Some typical evening hanging out at the nearby sadar market and the dinner at the fast food joint in the market were real fun.
We decided to visit Sikandra on our way back. An hour or so there and after that it was the drive back to Gurgaon which was also pretty smooth and hassle free.
Overall a fun filled drive and a very pleasant stay at Agra.
Also, technically the drives so far on my i10 has been without a single glitch, touch wood. Looking forward to some more of such drives :)
