After a super nice (super nice in the fact that it was only 4hrs not 48hrs on the train!) flight from the southern tip of India back to Delhi. We checked out the spectacular Taj Mahal for Lonna's birthday. Yes it really is as amazing as it is supposed to be. Built out of love for a queen who died giving birth to her 14th child, I think.
From New Delhi we wound our way up into the huge foothills of the Himalayas. A week in Rishikesh to swim in the partially clear Ganges. Dodging the constant barrage of Sadhus and cows in the "yoga capital of the world."
We left the amazing train system behind as the major form of transportation in the mountains is scary bus.
We have found a little gem of a place in the Parvati valley, called Kasol. Beautiful crisp mountain air, clean flowing rivers, hot springs, glaciated peaks and nice big trees!
Enjoying the leisurely walks and good food in the spring like temperatures in the Himalayas.
