Day 2

The Day started at 4 am with a feeling of going out as soon as the sun shows up...and it started with a trek from bhagsu naag to Gallu Devi Temple ... through the woods that gave me calm and a feeling of self love as I was the only one there...loved the beauty of sunrise and every leaf of forest...

After walking for 1 and half hours I reached Gallu Devi and decided to Trek all through the Triund Top.

it took me another 3 and half hours to reach Triund top with lots of obstacles like...my feet went to strike ...like my body was hungry and thirsty ...only two shops are there on the way .
But the top worth it all....
I loved the view the green meadow and the people I met on the way ...even the goats and rocks..

at 12 :10 I reach there had water and chips...that cost me 100 Rupees .. and after 1 hour I started again from top to the place where I came from.

had my Maggie on the way rested for half an hour and at 4 I was again at gallu devi temple.
then I had no stamina left for further walk so I took a taxi that costs me 500 to my hotel in bhagsunaag .

I reach at 5 there and then after taking a bath and change ..I went again to see the Monestry in Market.

at night I came back walking through dark ...no lights were there on mall road.

it was a well spent day... I had utilized every second of it...

Day 3

Way to waterfall was also a trek ...not so long but long enough to make you breathless... beauty was scenic...water was crystal clear ...rocks were shining... everything was calling me to them but I had a flight to catch and airport was 1 hour away...so I did make haste..but everything was soooooo pure that I wanted to spent at least one more day .

will go again because church and Dalai lama temple (not opened for tourists due to focus) are left .
