Excited about what might be inside Adam and Sham make strides towards the main caves.

The caves were quite dark and thus not too many decent photos. Need to get some of Shams special 'best' photos which came out really well. Here is one of the engravings - still quite impressive.

Go on Sham get a little closer. Stroke him..... I'm sure he won't bite!

Sham and I get into the whole experience on the toy train which took us back to the boat - well maybe it was just me.

On the way back to the Gateway of India the sun set over the city backdrop. There are many shots of those but this was my favourite with the lowering sun highlighting all around.
