From Brahma to Buddha, Fall 2009

This is our second day back in Leh. When we first arrived at Kidar house it felt like we just arrived home from vacation or something. My homestay family in Domkhar was really awesome, and of course Namgail placed me with Kunjock (sp?) because he could speak amazing english, and who knows what would have happend if I was unable to blabber for large parts of the day. Its nice to be back in Leh but I do definatlly miss walking up and down the road and seeing montains, cows, the river and farmiliar faces instead of storefronts and trucks, I cant even imagin being back in Delhi right now. We laid out all of our gear for the trek yesterday afternoon and I think everyone is getting pretty pumped (and also a bit nervous). We leave tomorrow morning! My goal for the afternoon is to find warpaint with Nora for the trek, wish us luck!

Love from Leh,
Annie
