Anandpur Sahib- don't miss the Nihang

Dharamshala

These pictures are from my recent trip to Dharamshala. The trip was great. Stopped at Anandpur Sahib on the way. So that was a good start to a great vacation.

On route Deo found the place where he and his love from his previous birth went to date. He suddenly had flashes from his earlier life.

All through the route the Nepali inside Deo would suddenly rise up sending us into these uncontrollable laughing fits. He is really good at it. Gaurav wouldn't stop his stories about his insane military days. Ifthi was his usual quite self speaking up occasionally but making up for all those quite moments with his witty comments

In Dharamshala Deo and Gaurav turned into these V.V.S.F. creatures. It was hard to keep them from grabbing every foreign chick on the road nevertheless no damage done and they did end up getting themselves some KODAK moments.....
