Ce militaire s'ennuie. Il surveille une barrière ouverte et empêche les véhicules de poursuivre leur route jusqu'à la vallée de Manali. On supposera que c'est pour alterner la circulation dans un passage difficile. Pourtant aucun véhicules ne remontent le col.

Himalayas project.
Tout les véhicules sont bloqués plusieurs heures en haut du col. Nous devons attendre que les véhicules en provenance de Manali franchissent le col. Il fait froid et très humide. A part quelques routiers il n'y a pas grand monde.

That's me, in an ill-fitting jacket and muffler. This is near the end of summer, but a week or so before we went there, there was some unseasonal snow, which hadn't melted yet.

One day I asked God to move the mountain ahead of me, but he said no because he wanted me to experience the joy of being on a mountain top.

So - I should say that to get here we had a 5 hour (should have been 3) bus trip up even further than we are at present. Gary couldn't look out the window as all those who have travelled in the Himalayas can testify - they don't have side rails and the drop off can be thousands of feet. Because of the heavy rain we kept running into work being carried out on the mountain passes. All sounds exciting and a bit scary till you get to this pass described in some travel blurbs as "Notorious" and a fcuking young kid pops up out of no where wanting to sell you hot coffee. I mean really LOL. Of course he didn't have to twist my arm. We did the trip once and it has taken us all of today for our bums to recover from the bus trip. This coffee kid and all the work men either drive up and back every day or (get this) camp out in plastic roofed huts with stone sides. Amazing. Anyway - Gary got me with the first snow ball. Grrrrrr ;)
