Road trip to Ladakh : Some pictures

yeah! Garfieldness has taken over me big time, and I am too lazy to post on my blog, even reading other blogs.

Till the time I break free out of this state, enjoy some more pictures from my visit to Ladakh almost 2 months back….

All these pictures are from the road journey from Manali to Leh, undoubtedly the most magnificent and adventurous road trip of my life so far… :)

    Wowww! Cool pics!! Really beautiful scenery!
    I’d been to Ladakh when I was in school. The scenery there is totally different than in the rest of India, like a cld desert.

    Waiting for the next post now… :)

    Fantastic pictures. I love mountains and have a collection. Plan to go to leh and Ladakh sometime in my life. Wish there was a blog only on mountains.

  17. Addicted… Says:

    [...] Okay! I have been too lazy to post, lot of things happening too in life. Nikhil tried tagging me and then threatening as well, Phoenix cursed my Garfieldness — still i did not budge, and kept being lazy…. :D :D [...]

  18. Kaushik Says:

    Nice blog man. And great pictures.

    I don’t know you, but looks like we share common interests. You biked to Ladakh, I assume? Do post a travelogue!

    If there’s one thing I need to do to consider my life successful, it would be a visit to this place!
