I arrived in Leh this morning and it was... wait for it..... 19 degrees, my feet felt cold and it was bliss! I love this place already, as we flew in we flew over the Himalayas as the sun was rising which was stunning, and it has been just as stunning since I arrived. I can see the snow capped mountains from my hotel room and it's just so peaceful and quiet compared to the madness of Delhi (I have no mobile signal by the way, just to let you know). I'm crossing my fingers that I don't get altitude sickness (I've never been high up enough before to know whether I get it or not!). There was a big warning at the airport about taking it easy for the first 24 hours at least and I've heard stories already of people being really ill as it's so high (Leh is the highest airport in the world apparently). So I'm just having a wander around today and will start doing things tomorrow hopefully. I forgot to bring my gadget to the internet cafe so I can upload pictures but will do so next time I come here. It's only 5 days until I'm home! x
