This was our first official 'touristy' stop at Amer Fort built way back in the 10th Century... way
way older than America. It was our first time actually visiting a battling fort and was an awesome experience for us both. It was also our first time encountering the 'touristing Indians' ,
who love all white people or what we would call 'whities'... which was only a beginning for the many
many photos that were taken of us, with each Indian individually, all 12 of them, plus their babies, plus their grandmas & grandpas, with no exaggeration.
One man ask if he could take my picture, so I agreed and as I stood their smiling he walked closer to me zooming in on my feet and he took a photo of my toes! I have no clue what he will do with that photo but he was thankful and happy, that's all that matters right? I also had another mom ask if we could take a photo with her children and then said that she was going to hang it on the walls of her home... we were seen as celebrities and I quickly realized that I could in no way live my life like that all the time!
