During the journey, the students indulged in some much-needed rest, catching up on sleep after waking up at 4:00 am. At 6:30 am, they were pleasantly surprised to receive a box of delicious snacks, including cheese sandwiches, a mouthwatering chocolate cupcake, a ripe banana, and refreshing juice.

Asmi's team emerged victorious, adding to the excitement of their day. Their exploration continued with a visit to the stunning Red Fort, where they were mesmerised by its grandeur and historical significance.
As the day drew to a close, they stopped at Burger King for a satisfying dinner before heading back. Upon their return, they relished some well-deserved phone time before bidding farewell to their newfound friends and retiring for the night, cherishing the memories of their unforgettable journey to Agra.
