The first day, we set out from Jammu and  reached Udhampur, where we stayed for the night. Today we are going from Udhampur to Kishtwar
Picture





   A break in the ride - I admire the scenery, Adi takes selfies, and Bawa catches 40 winks! The man can sleep anywhere. 

Picture
Really...look at the view behind, and see our man
Picture
Nothing can wake him
Picture
I went off to explore what these two structures were...
Picture
It turned out to be a remembrance of this dude who presumably died here...perhaps in an accident? What a morbid thing to see on the road!
Picture
And this garish eyesore turned out be - what else - a temple. 
Picture
I hate dams. See what this dam has turned this beautiful river into. 
Picture
Oh no! Bawa is having bike issues! His engine clamp is broken
He goes off into a tirade! That lousy lazy RE service centre has not done any of the work he told them to do! 
Picture
Bawa ka seal phod diya! His front fork shock absorber oil seal has gone! He is in for a bumpy ride. 

Picture
What amazing views! The Chenab will be our companion for some time now
Picture
There is nothing like a Himalayan river
Picture
Himalayan traffic jam! 
Picture
We are finally at Kishtwar and are chilling out in the giant meadow called the Chowgan.
It's an amazing place for the local people to relax in the evening. See the locals playing cricket...they had only one pair of pads, so both batsmen used one each
Picture
It's a wonderful open meadow in the middle of the town, and a great place for locals to come and chill in the evening
Picture
And they can see some strange people too...
Picture
What a beautiful evening and what beautiful mountains. Kishtwar is ringed by mountains. 
The ride begins
