After an eye opening visit to Amritsar, I felt like our holiday had reached its highest point. But in terms of the map, we were still heading north into Himachal Pradesh and the foothills of the Himalayas. I can't explain how different Himachal is to anywhere else we have visited in India. If felt like a different country, and for the first time in eight months, I was actually cold - invested in a blanket and socks which prove useful in AC hotel rooms too! Below are a selection of photos of McLeod Ganj, Manali and Shimla. McLeod Ganj (Dharmasala) was a particular highlight. The prayer flags and Buddhist monks in their red robes reminded me of Nepal and it was lovely to get an insight into yet another prominent religion in India.

Delhi and Agra post to come. Rs50 an hour for internet so those Taj Mahal photos are going to have to wait!
