Trekking and Beyond

April 7, 2008

Tomorrow early we leave on a 4 day trek into the Himalayas. We learned that if you shop around for the best price in India you should take it. We decided to go with the ashram we are staying in for what equalled $20 more in price and found out that it was the same outfit that quoted the cheaper price. So we are paying more to this ashram, which is not really like an ashram but more like a hotel. Oh well, live and learn.

We have had some gorgeous sunny weather and have enjoyed lounging by the Ganges. Shawn and I both took a dip in the frigged water yesterday. It was refreshing and amazing. Its funny there are so many white water rafting trips here. Its very popular with both foreigners and Indians. I can't convince Shawn to go though.

On the 21st we leave for McLeod Gang where we will spending the remainder of our time in India. I will try to email when we return from the trek but may not while we are at the ashram. So you will have to wait for more stories until after the 21st. I hope that the weather is nice there and you are having a wonderful spring.

Much Love, Tonya
