It was such a relief to leave Simla and ride into the beautiful Shivaliks

These are just the 'foothills' ... and see the beauty. Wonderful

This was the real starting of the ride - till now we were just getting to it - and we were very happy about it

This bridge was not on our route - but it looked so nice that we digressed and went there to click photos

A typical halt - Adi does his make up...

seriously...the man can sleep anywhere...

Anytime there is a bit of traffic holdup...he goes to the side of the road and naps

Lunch at dhaba...honest to goodness Indian food

Amazing views of the Sutlej valley
The view from our hotel in Sangla. Note the traditional slate tile roof of the house below - that is a convenient place to dry corn and maize and whatever else
