::7.20 am :: And we are still waiting to fly...
A long start
A long mid day
A long ponderous walk to the end
After seeing a wonderful looking resort
As we entered Phakding
Our rickety little lodge seemed to pale in comparison
Its like walking past Raffles Hotel
Then stopping for the night at a 2 storey shop house hostel
with flickering light bulbs leading to your room.
It seems like everything is "rickety"
Well I guess that's what we get when we go budget
Perhaps I have forgotten about my backpacking days
Or even Kilimanjaro, where we dint even have beds to sleep in
Its all about managing expectations as usual...
The first of many freezing ass nights to come
The cardboard-thin walls look too flimsy for comfort
I hope my feet don't freeze
I wonder how the poor animals keep warm
I see a few stray-looking dogs outside :(
Brrrr...
The real voyage of discovering consist not in seeing
new landscapes, but in having new eyes...
