More Earth Tourism, Tuesday
"First let me apologize for last week," Lana said. "Something came up at home that I had to help deal with. But this week we're back to our traveling, so let's head out."
She led them through the portal and to a rather striking building.
"This is the Taj Mahal. It was built around four hundred years ago by a ruler as a tomb for his wife and eventually himself. We're in India, by the way, which is in Asia, for those of you keeping track. This place is considered a World Heritage site, meaning that it is important to the culture of the world. It's considered an excellent example of architecture of its type. If you look around, you'll see that it's actually an entire complex surrounded by walls, and most of it is built from sandstone, though the main mausoleum is marble."
She nodded to the guide that would be taking them through. "We'll get shoe covers, water bottles, and maps when we get inside. No eating or any flame is allowed, keep your phones on silent and your voices down, don't take pictures inside, and don't touch anything; they're very protective of it all, and it is after all someone's tomb."
It was fascinating; Earth didn't seem to go in for these massive tombs for the most part, and Lana was feeling a bit nostalgic for Korriban, which was something that didn't happen often.
"Let's go!"

So, instead, she was drifting through the grounds, trying to drown out her thoughts with beauty.
