Manali to Leh
The bus trip from Manali to Leh in the north of
India takes three days and crosses some of the highest mountain passes
in the world. I’ve done it twice and it’s as uncomfortable as it is
beautiful.
The worst thing, in my opinion, is the dirt and the dust. Although for
some people it’s crossing the dangerous, high passes and looking down
hundreds of metres into the Himalayan valleys below. Your stomach turns
over as the bus winds its way around impossible bends and curves in the
road.
The funny thing (here I mean funny strange, unusual or odd not laughable
or amusing) is that the roads we being repaired in front of us as we
were travelling up and down the mountains. The roads get damaged during
the winter snowfalls and need to be restored in the spring, so every
year the roads are rebuilt.
The second time I made the trip, the bus windscreen shattered and the
driver asked to borrow my sunglasses so that he could continue the
journey without flies or dust in his eyes.
