And after a good night’s rest at Hotel Aureole in Mumbai, we are now off to the domestic airport to catch our flight to Chandigarh.

At 75 kilos, this is the heaviest I have ever been – a good 12 kilos above normal. Have started in one layer of clothing and since we have just heard that it has started snowing in Shimla, I figure I will need the thermal layer from Chandigarh. It was -3 degrees C in Shimla yesterday.
