if anyone is still reading/following this thread ...

Should I be concerned about all the recent terrorism attacks in Pakistan when Dharamsala/ Mcleod Ganj is so close? Is it safe?

Despite this nervousness I am getting excited 3 weeks to go

They are so far away from each other.......

Most of the people is Dharamshala probably doesn't even know about the Pak terror attacks......

Good question Sarah.

Probably no need to worry too much on that front. It may look close on the map, but there's enough distance to be a safe buffer zone. Of course, terrorist attacks can happen anywhere though. Especially anywhere in India.

Thanks guys!

it really does look close on the map though

OK, then we will miss each other by two days. Sure, we'll catch up elsewhere. The world is getting smaller all the time :-)

Enjoy your trip !

McLeod Ganj in november would be pleasantly cold. Not snowing, but pretty cold. Nice time to visit the place. Had been there last november.

miki64 · Oct 25th, 2009, 21:28

how mach cold nundish?????

shivani when you arrive to Mc? 15 november?

Shivani Skydancer · Oct 26th, 2009, 06:18

Last November in Mcleodganj was sunny and warm! In the evenings only a jumper was required. Nights were cuddly under the blanket.

Miki, my plan is to arrive on the 15th of November, but you know how it is with plans, they often change :-)

staremperor73 · Oct 26th, 2009, 08:11

oh I hope it is not too cold, i am only taking one jumper/jacket

Any visa news yet Shivani?

I will be in McG on Nov 22nd, getting the o/night train from Rishikesh. Still contemplating Triund trek, but i'm not sure if i have the room in backpack to pack the proper footwear. We will see

Sarah

Shivani Skydancer · Oct 26th, 2009, 08:37

Hi Sarah :-)

What do you mean by overnight train from Rishikesh to Dharamshala? Which route is the train going?

A jumper and jacket will be all you need for warmth in Mcleod at that time of year. As for shoes, just normal runners would be fine.

The online visa tracker is indicating that it will be ready for collection within 24 working hours! Fingers crossed :-)
