Hi all I am back

Well we have been back long actually, disappointingly couldn't make it to Roopkund. Physically first then mentally sapped. Narendra was brilliant, so were Patwalji and his lovely lodge, met some amazing people, Negi was super cool.

Sorry for not keeping you guys updated, think it took this long to get over the disappointment.

Also as all you sensible ones pointed out, flying to Dehrahun isn't really a great Idea. As advised out flight to dehradun did get canceled . We drove a long way to get to Hrishikesh, fortunately we found fellow stranded travelers to share the cost with.

I am sort of putting together a brief about the whole exp. will post the same soon.

I have also since moved to Delhi and am looking for weekend getaways with almost isolated walking trails. Please do help.

Thanks to all again
