Day 09 Incredible India!!


30 August 2009
Ooops, it is 0405 hours and no one has woken up. Darn, late!!! But Cha was late too, phew!! I had a change of vehicle, Scorpio since it will be a long trip to PanggongTso. Our driver, JigmatAngchok is a 23 year old boy. 

The sky opened up and it was snowing. 
 
I reached Changla pass at 5360m, the highest pass I have been. Ok I am not prepared and was underdressed. Stomach was itching and I had to visit the toilet there. Grrrrr!!!
At around 0930 hours, I reached PanggongTso and the sun start peeking.

I came across a mother and son walking along. To where? There wasn’t any village  nearby.

There was ‘life’ at this place too 

The weather was extremely hot now. A short visit to a local village, I saw the farmers harvesting barley.

I simply couldn’t resist but had to steal a shot of this lady farmer.

I left the place around 1300 hours but stopped by a hill to pick up some garnet stone. It was time to bid goodbye to PangongTso, and this little girl did it for me along the way home ,

I finally reachedLeh at 1900 hours.

I had dinner at the guest house and turned in at 2230 hours.
