  • In A Search of Absolution

    Well, since the Leh fever is on these days, I thought I might as well post my Leh travelogue too. Did this solo in July last year.

    Enjoy it!

    Prelude:




    Equipment:

    Camera: 1) Casio Exilim 10.1 MP

            Yet again! You are one helluva hero

            And in the middle of nowhere, at 3500 mts one sees a paddle boat in a lake in near freezing water! Who is it for? For truck drivers to chill out with a girl that they picked up on the way?
            The Wheel was a great invention; Two Wheels with a Motor in between was even better!
