View from Vashisht.
This is the view looking out the window of our bus. Notice the water and rocks running down the cliff below.
This is us a little happier to be finishing the journey in day light
Ray and I are SCARED!!
I must say the ride to Manali was as horrifying as I had imagined. We left McLeod Ganj at 8:30pm. It was a very foggy and rainy night. The 10 hour trip actually ended up being a 20 hour trip and it was only a 400km journey!!! It was raining so hard that we had to make a 7 hour stop because there were all kinds of mudslides happening. Anyway, we obviously made it. We are now in a small town 3km outside Manali called Vashisht. It's the most amazing view I've seen yet. We are high up in the Himalaya mountains. The air is cool and fresh. We have a room high on the hill with views of the whole valley. Tonight, as Ray and I were playing cards on the rooftop of some restaurant with thew most incredible view, drinking chai; I was filled filled with complete and utter joy to be where I am.
