Journey into Ladakh
Ladakh comes from the word la-tags , in tibetan the land of the la , the land of the high mountain passes..Its the northern most part of India. Week 1 As I packed my bags to embark into a 2 weeks adventure that I have been waiting and dreaming about the last few years , nothing had prepared me for the splendour and the majesty of the mountains and the people, and the indelible mark the place would leave on me. I had readup whatever info. I could find on the internet, browsed a few books at bookshops, I thought I was all prepared for the beautiful mountains, gompas and ofcourse high altitude sickness.We were a bunch of strangers who had signed up for this adventure into the unknown which was being organised by Santosh from http://getoffurass.com/ Boarded the Sat. morning(12th Aug) spicejet flight from Bangalore to Delhi, that I very nearly missed because of believing the SMS sent out by Spicejet folks that the flight was delayed by an hour and half. I guess the trip was all destined ,...
