Leh Trip- Day 7

21 May 07


The day began with packing our luggage and after breakfast we headed to the Airport where a mighty IL-76 would take us back to Delhi. On reaching the airport we were informed that due to bad weather no aircraft had landed since three days. While waiting for our IL-76 there we saw three IL-76, one AN-32 (of IAF) and a civil flight landing. We boarded the IL-76 and I occupied a place next to the Navigator in the lower side of the cockpit which is bubble shaped and transparent made of reinforced plastic for the Navigator to help the Pilot to navigate the aircraft visually. However my intention was to take some most beautiful snaps on our way back till we landed on IG International Airport, New Delhi.

Thus ended a wonderful and exotic trip to THE COLDEST DESERT where we have to go again to visit every place again specially the Pyong-pso Lake.

Well, I had gone during the Summer, but could upload it just now thanks to
1) CDC Sem at BPGC-Well the courses were tough and time less
2) Awesomest Net Speed at BPGC- Uploading these images would have taken lightyears.

So here I am, on Christmas eve reminiscencing the great week I had in Leh, the cold, snowy days and the laidback lifestyle of the people living there.

Here is wishing you a Merry Christmas.
