Gangtok, East Sikkim, India, 10 June 2018, 1910 hours:

So we arrived in Gangtok exactly 14 hours after we stated traveling from our home in Pune. So that’s a card ride to the airport, two flights (Pune-Kolkatta-Bagdogra), and a car ride from Bagdogra to Gangtok … I would say that’s a pretty efficient itinerary and we have reached pretty much relaxed and having enjoyed most of the travel.

And after the customary welcome drink (hot tea with honey), here’s the view we checked in to (these are all views of Deorali from Gangtok).
