Toured the fort and Muslim royalty tombs on Monday, 8th of August. We played with the acoustics and warning system the soldiers used back in 1500's. By clapping their hands in the portico of main gate, the sound travelled to the king located all the way at the top of the fort. We also saw bats, climbed a 450 year old tree from Africa, met some Indian friends, and gawked at local movie stars getting ready to film a Telegu (local Bollywood) film.

Wow! How great! Can we expect to see some familiar faces as "foreigners" in the premier?? We kinda like the clapping system - think it'd work back home? :)
