DAY 23 : INDIA : Darjeeling (rest day)

Weather : foggy with intermittent sunshine, 20o

 

 

The next few days will be full of early mornings so we took it easy today recovering from our aching muscles. We visited downtown Darjeeling with the police traffic island only complicating the already restricted flow through narrow winding alleyways.

 

Unexpected traffic.. heavy loads usually carried by elderly women.

 

 

 

Another visit to the Post Office - a rare occurrence this week as there are so many holidays - Hindu Holi and Christian Good Friday...and parcel office closes at 3.Parcels stitched and then candle wax is melted to make several seals.

Medicated and ready for tomorrow's 4.30am start!
