Glaciers! E-mail
From Sonamarg, Kashmir, India

Hate cold! Avoid it like the plague! But always wanted to come to Kashmir & decided it was worth the chill. And here... let an Indian tourist talk me into getting even colder... by spending a day at a glacier! Sooo worth it!

ImageThe journey was beautiful... small villages, mountain passes & cute inspiration signs along the way like "No race, no rally, enjoy the beauty of the valley". And thanks to a local village blocking all the traffic until they got a doctor, ended up spending a few hours in one of those villages. But it was lovely! Sat by a large ice-cold river while all the village kids gathered around. That alone would have been great!

Then when we got there... rode a horse over a mountain past nomadic sheepherders with the entire area encircled by the snowcapped Himalayans. And on the other side of the mountain... the glacier! Wow!
