A magical evening

We journeyed to Gwalior on December 3 and stayed in a place of dreams - a palace. It is the Usha Kiran Palace. It is now a Taj hotel in Gwailor and offered us an opportunity to live our dreams. We were given the Sun Suite and the Moon Suite (be sure to request them when staying here) on the third floor, the top of the hotel. The wonderful thing is that they are the only accommodations on the entire third floor. In addition to those rooms, there is a terrace that could accommodate 300 people (pictured below). Since this is all private, the hotel, run by the exceptional Mr. Vikrant Jharia, offered to have dinner presented on the terrace. The chef created a menu just for us that night. We were a party of four, the wait staff was a party of three. This evening, a dinner on the private terrace of a palace, was more magical than even Mr. Walt Disney himself could have created. I have mentioned before how this country offers so much more than I ever anticipated and last night at Usha Kiran Palace was another such experience.

The Table is set.
