Palchan, Mall,Manali Manali, Himachal Pradesh, India
As we prepared to leave Mc Leod Ganj we took a look at the Hindustan Times. There was an article noting a security threat in the town of Manali. The paper noted that there were two Chabad houses in Manali that served the large number of Israeli tourists who visit this region. This fact, along with the upcoming Jewish holidays and their recent experience in Mumbai, has caused the Indian Security forces to tighten security measures in the town of Manali, in Himachel Pradesh.We ...
Manali, Himachal Pradesh, India thomasgillam... North India" he added helpfully. Yes, I thought, especially as the passes to Leh, closed throughout the rest of the year, tend to open around June/July. I nodded in silent agreement. Then came an in-depth account of every effort from the Indian population to scam him out of a few Rupees. <br>"You've got to laugh eh?" I ventured with a smile.<br>"Well no, actually, I don't think its very funny at all. Its against the law" he answered, in all seriousness I might add. My ...
Manāli, Himāchal Pradesh, India owain... electricity, no water. Lies, all lies") But he did all of it with a smile, with the same good nature he told us about hiking nearby. Here, men like the Italian are rare, but the Sangye's are everywhere - Tibetans running non-profits, language classes, arts classes, yoga institutes, schools, hotels and restaurants. For while we may be legally in India, Kate and I have come to the capitol of Tibet: Mcleod Ganj, an ...
McLeod Ganj, Himachal Pradesh, India hammitt... and the fact that, romantically speaking, we are all children of the other of all rivers, Indus was rather humbling. So that's it then, folks. Look forward to the pictures! Should be up sometime this week. And hey, if any of you plan to visit Leh, do let me know. Would love to go back since there is loads more i have yet to see and experience. So work on that travel plan you have left on the backburner all this while, will you? Cheers, a
Manali, Himachal Pradesh, India aratix... hotel, but then they tried to poison him with toxic gasses through the air vents so he was forced to flee in the early hours back to our open arms, in his feeble state. Before this there was lots of fun involving doctors and Jared getting a rash on his face which looked terrifying, and quite humorous. So then we checked the J-Funk into another hotel, which was fit, no poison nor nuffink! That day we got a message from Umi (we love Umi, yeah!) to saty "Go to Manali, NOW!", so we did. We ...
Manali, Himachal Pradesh, India jaredsamjoe... like you want to escape...scream... run away...hide.... and be safely at home in a 'normal' environment and out of this utter madness that assaults every part of you .............. throughout the day we saw so many unbelievable things, and of course we were tired after the night bus fiasco... but I felt utterly blitzed!! There were people in the main square washing their clothes, their ...
Manali, Kullu valley, Himachal Pradesh, India gillipFriday, December 27 Manali- what a great adventure!....and a big oy! Well, we arrived in Manali Friday evening about 9 pm after one of the most beautiful and thrilling car rides that I've been on. Ahjay, our driver who has taken the 6 ½ hr. trip to Manali about 15 times is an excellent driver but Dharamsala drivers are the equivalent of the stereotypical NY drivers...aggressive and 'beep & go'. But for ...
Manali, India splunkWow it's been a while since I've written, and I've been so busy. I was in Dharamasala for a few more days. I saw the Dalai Lama. I heard he was speaking at the children's home (which is like an orphanage for Tibetan kids who manage to get out of Tibet without their parents) so Britany (another Canadian i met) and I went. We took a taxi there, as we had no clue where it was, and then wandered around trying to figure out what was going on. We found a guy who did, so we ...
Manali, India emza... ki se tovrstnih substanc nismo posluzevali. Naj omenim se to, da marihuana tu ni dovoljena, vendar s podkupninami vsaj za silo pomirijo policaje. V restavracijah torej lahko narocis posebno pijaco, ki ima ime special lassi oz. special shake. Vendar vsi vedo zakaj gre. Mi smo se naredili neumne in vprasali, zakaj je ta pijaca tako posebna, natakar pa je zacudeno nekaj zasepetal nazaj. O tem se pac zgleda ne govori na glas, ceprav vsi vedo, da je v pijaco ...
Manali, India repa01... at in the evening we saw loads of people walking in that direction, so we followed suit. There was a temple in the forest and a Mela 'festival' of some sort was going on. There were hundreds of people there (see pics). There were a lot of men dressed in traditional outfits performing a dance in the middle of the festivities, there were also these statues of a goddess on a type of stretcher being carried around everywhere. There was live music playing, and a ...
