Back!

I landed at Blore airport at 0040hrs on Monday Aug 15th. I was away for just 10days. But it seemed like an eternity. New places, new faces, so many new feelings...
First of all, we didn't do what we had originally planned to do. We couldn't go to Leh. But that doesn't make the journey any less great. Loss of Leh was the gain of Lahaul. We were told that with just two days in Leh, its was as good as not going there at all, and we didn't want a Leh trip that wouldn't cover the Nubra valley and Panang-Tso. That would've been a gross injustice, and disrespect to Leh. So Leh will have to wait till next time, and we are so inspired by the lonely Royal Enfield Bullet riders on the highway, that we've decided that we'll make ourselvers expert Bullet riders before we hit Manali next.
This time it was Keylong. It is the HQ of the district of Lahaul & Spiti of HP. A truly picture-post card place, in the slopes of the misty and snow-capped Himalayas. A true out of the world experience.

The write-up and the links to pics will follow soon...
