Diwali to the Mountians

Hi All,
It seems a rainbow has shattered here in Dun and its shards have coated with colors enough to make an Oompa Loompa blush. Combine the lights of Christmas with the fire of the 4th and you’ve got some idea of the flashing, bursting, bonanza of brilliance that culminates the second night of Diwali.

Dad, Jess and I arrived here from Nepal the 14th and tomorrow we make our way up out of the flashing bright and into the white capped mountains of Himachal Pradesh. Our team of nine will meet up with my friend Girdhari in Kullu, 10 hours ride north of Dun and stay with his family that night, and he is excited to show us the area. From there we hope to reach an alpine desert north of Manali situated over 13,000 feet. We’ve left the schedule flexible because in India nothing need be planned with rigor unless you’re seeking out frustration, but we plan to return to Dun Oct 25th and we’ll see if we can make it to the Tibetan border before then.

All His Best,
-Jonathan
