... continuous torrent of class V rapids. The river rafting expedition takes you through one of the most spectacular gorges in Asia. The trip
comes to an end at the convergence of the Indus and the Zanskar rivers at Nimmu. The Indus and the Zanskar rivers are great for rafting purposes. Zanskar seems to be challenging as it covers the impressive route passing through a canyon sandwiched between Padum and Nimo.

... on kohal. Ja üsna pahurad kogu ilmaelu peale. Teeme Kadri ja Anuga näo, et ei saa midagi aru. Hiljem väljas selgub, et Martti ja Kaarle jõudsid neidiseid autoparanduse teemal valgustada.
Vahetult enne Sankood jääb auto laskumisel seisma. Üks tagumine kumm on tühi. Ehheee. Tagavarakummi ei paista kuskil. Paljudel autodel on see katusel. Aga ega juht pole mingi papist poiss. Tagavararehv on auto all. Siis pannakse katkise ratta ette kivi ja s ...

... tegelasi liigub ringi.
Martti nõuab best restaurant in town-i, mis juba iseenesest kõlab kahtlaselt. Hotellipoiss juhatab meid hämarasse keldrirestorani, kus mõne aja pärast kaob elekter, inimesi pole, see-eest hulgim kärbseid (too many butterflies...). Portsud on pisikesed ja nende kohalejõudmine võtab ilmatu kaua aega. Otsustan pärast restoranikülastust üle süüa ja nõuan hotellimehelt ennist lubatud sööki. Lubab tuua mulle ...

... no mood to challenge that. Gradually the change became apparent in everything - on one hand weather became pleasant, on the other the enormous presence of army men on Jammu Srinagar highway made us tense. There were fully armed soldiers at every 20 meters on both sides of road. However, the view around the road was incredible. We stopped the car to click few snaps of "First view of Kashmir Valley", a ...

... it finally struck, and it struck hard. I didn't leave the tent for the rest of the day, fighting a severe headache, nausea, and pressure. Around 7pm my friend came to check on me and seeing the state I was in contemplated making the journey back to BC1. However, by that time it would've meant walking in the dark, and I couldn't even bear the thought of getting up to go to the bathroom, let alone walking for 4 hours. No way. The ...

... přizpůsoben - se nám jezily chlupy na zádech, kdyz jsme na centimetry míjeli kraj cesty, pod ním jen sráz a pak jen hloubka. Ťuk ťuk... ťuk ťuk ťuk, mi klepe na hlavu paní s oválným Tibetským obličejem za mnou, se kterou jsem se dala do řeči při čekání na záchod při jedné zastávce. Zastavili jsme se momentálně ve vesničce Drass, kde jsme vyplňovali nějaké formuláře pro cizince a ona mi tentokr ...

... intatto. Niente di grave, solo che quel deficiente dell'autista voleva fare il pelo ad un cartello stradale, e quello ci ha fatto il contro-pelo... "Porca miseria", ho esclamato, "ora dobbiamo tornare indietro, cambiare autobus... chissà quando partiamo". "Ma perché, tu pensi che cambiamo autobus?" mi ha chiesto Lenka con un sorrisino. "Ma Lenka... saliamo a 3600 metri oggi, domani passiamo i 4000! Come facciamo senza la metà dei finestrini? E se fa freddo? Se piove ...

... and perched high up on a cliff. On one side there is a scenery named after the Moon. It is really dry and looks wonderful. I saw some young monks studying and a puja inside 2 of the small rooms. Some old ladies were walking around with their prayer wheel and the students coming back from school were twisting and hanging on the big one. I stayed in a guesthouse at the bottom and caught a bus early the next morning to head to Kashmir.

... street market, with shops on both sides doing brisk business. Just that the business was mostly confined to religious paraphernalia, and T-Series had to be the dominant player around, with photos of Gulshan Kumar, its deceased founder, smiling benevolently at you, egging you on... The climb is not really arduous most of the way, unless of course, you are foolhardy enough to brave the steps, instead of the concrete pavement. In fact, one flight - our wisdom prevailed against ...

... 4 AM when we finally left Delhi. All were feeling sleepy as none had slept in night. We thought of having some tea after an hour to refresh ourselves but ended up having a few cans of Red Bull and moving on. The second stop was at 6:40 AM for breakfast. Now when you move in a group stops suddenly grow much longer and we finally hit the road again at 7:40 AM. I was leading the formation and after an hour or so began to feel extremely ...
