Just PMed you, ksb.

Piyush · Jun 23rd, 2008, 21:56

any updates of the Kumaun meetup..

Dilliwala · Jun 23rd, 2008, 23:19

Oh absolutely!
Since only 3 of us confirmed, we met for dinner in Delhi and pretended we were in Ranikhet! And then the other 2 took the Ranikhet Express.

And where were you?

earth.anon · Jun 23rd, 2008, 23:33

Man... I just spent my lunch hour going through and drooling over Almoraboy's photo blogs of his munsyari-khalia trip. Makes me want to come back there again real soon!

In the meantime - look me up if any of you is planning an trip to Boston, U.S.A :-)

You know, it has been written:
"He who thinks of the Himalaya, though he should not behold them, is greater than he who performs all worships in Kashi...As the dew is dried up by the morning sun, so are the sins of mankind by the sight of the Himalaya"
