Finally on the Blogosphere !! (Again..)

Finally after quite a lot of miss hits and Lazy bones moments I've taken the jump to start blogging. Earlier, when I am travelling around on the bike, it always runs in my mind "Damn...what a journey... I should definitely write about this trip...." and by the time I hit home, the procrastination bit takes over and over a period of time I just forget about the blogging part completely, till the next time I hit the road. Then the cycle repeats itself.

I guess blogging is like any other skill/hobby... you tend to get hooked on to it as you keep at it.. and it wanes away once the lazy bones start kicking in. This time around its time I bit the bullet.

Sitting in the airport right now, just before my second trip to the Ladakh valley, as usual, I was thinking.. "May be I should start writing about the trip once I actually start travelling from road.. The experiences start from there" et al... But what the hell.. getting up early in the morning, starting from @ 9:00 am for a flight @ 1:00pm.. Evading the Mad Bangalore traffic all is a part of the travelling experience in itself.

Hence this begining.. I am planning to jot down my nomadic mutterings as and when possible now... and I shall liberally throw in the pictures henceforth... The looks of it it cant get worse... it can only get better... after years of not writing both electronically and physically any of my experiences, my language skills are at a all time low. It definitely should get better ;)

My Trip: I should be reaching Delhi by 3:30 pm today and shall be whisked away in an Innova to Manali which would be a overnight journey. Last year I did the same trip on a bike. That was an unparelled experience. This year I shall be locked in the compartment and would be like watching live TV through the windshield of the car..I definitely do miss my bikes now !! But since I am on four wheels I am carrying enough and more gear to ensure that I capture every step of the trip.

Battery running low now and got to grab a bite now before the flight!! Shall be constantly updating the blog..Keep reading!! and Wish me luck on this new journey in the Blogosphere ;)

Adios for now !
