The Road Less Travelled- Ladakh!

Had been planning this so many years now! In 2009 after I returned from Zurich, I was already in love with the mountains. Wanted to go to the Himalayas especially Ladakh. But as Harry Chapin says "there were planes to catch and bills to pay.."
It did not happen in 2009.

There was a chance to do this in 2010, but as luck would have it, it snowed in June in Ladakh and the roads opened 15 days late. Late enough that i could not go on the Ladakh trip as my b-school classes had started in Indore by then. Summer internship and financial constraints did not help me fulfill the dream of visiting Ladakh in 2011. And 2012 was spent in fighting it out in the new job.

Finally, its in 2013, after four long years when i first thought about the trip, that I am going to Ladakh. The weekend starting with 9th August till 18th August has 2 public holidays (Id and Independence day, in case you are wondering!) and there are two weekends. So, by just taking four days off, I would be enjoying 10 days on bliss in on the road to/of Ladakh!! :) :)

Flight tickets from Kolkata to Chandigarh and Srinagar to Kolkata have been booked (btw-Akbar Travels has the cheapest rate when it comes to flights). With Das, Niloy, Pulkit and Swappy as company, am sure that this is gonna be legen...wait for it..dary! Because somethings are worth the wait!
