The Team of Trekkers and our Guides

More goodbyes in perfect weather as we left late, in 3 jeeps from Munsiari. A 12 hour ride on Indian roads was no fun really, I am too old for that! One of the vehicles was forced off the road and, getting back on the road, it broke down. Somehow the drivers fixed it and we arrived in Kathogam's Relax Hotel just as the rain started again. The hotel is a dump despite glowing reports on social media (who really writes these things?) We had to get the bathroom cleaned, ask for towels, clean sheets, can't wait to return to Delhi!

Reflection.... All the people we have met in so many situations on this trip, have the same aspirations as we have, mobility towards a safe, comfortable and happy life. Yet we often forget that they have no possibility of training in our "western" expectations. With age it seems I have lost the belief that short-comings of this type can be overcome. Maybe I should stick to the Alps
