The Himalayas

So after relazing for the past 2 days in Rishikesh, ive moves north to Manali!
Rishikesh was cool, did alot of sight seeing and saw a ceremony on the Ganges river, got some good pics too. Took an early morning yoga class, which wasnt bad, but ive had better...over all Rishikesh was really relaxiong and exactly what i needed after 2 days in delhi hahaha
The 16hr bus ride to Manali was something else tho, they crammed as many ppl into the bus as possible so all our luggage had to be put on the roof as we were driving along the cliffs at night. The bus was filled with ~90% buddhist monks who kept getting off and untieing the roof rack to get their stuff but then not tieing other ppls things back on! so the last leg of the trip i think my bag was a bit loose but it survived hahaha.
So I only got into Manali this morning and wanted to get on the internet because ive been computer free for 3 days now! (its a feat, believe me haha) So I probally wont be back online until I head back to Delhi, so ill aim for the 21st/22nd, just so I can hear all the birthday wishes from the otherside of the world. Its gonna be weird not being around anyone for my birthday this year, but Ive saved the cards my family gave me to open on my birthday, cuz i figured I wanted SOMETHING to do on it.
So the 23rd ill be back in Delhi (buh) to see Sheila and Catherine until they head back to Canada and I head south, which is the complete opposite of what I'm experiencing right now! (I can see snow! its on the top of the mountains, but it still counts)
