After attending Freed.in, we took a bus and ran away to Manali to escape the delhi heat. The 19 hour bus journey started around 4PM in the evening with everyone buying random stuff to eat and drink, fixing the music system, clicking pictures of random people and objects, listening to gora crack random jokes and searching for a good dhaba to have dinner.

Next morning we all woke up in himachal pradesh, drooling at the awesome himalyan mountains and the gorges. Next day was the trip to Rohtang pass to see the fresh snowfall. High altitude (well, compared to Mumbai), freeezzzzing atmosphere, super chilled breeze, it was all there.

Solang valley is a small place 18Km up the hills from Manali city, with half a dozen resorts and facilities for rope-way and para gliding.

After taking a dip in near boiling sulphur smelling ground water at vasistha, it seems my hair fall has come down considerably - or is it just my figment of imagination

Trip to manali was sure fun. Now let us see when do i get to go to laddakh.

Well, while you were spending your time in Manali with your parents, the rest of us - especially OldMonk - couldn't stop laughing.

You also missed out on the dopers that we saw in Old Manali, and the snow fight. But yeah, everything else - especially the return bus journey was good. What say?
