Shillong!

[pinkoliphaunt]

I’ve wanted to go to Shillong for a very long time now. Well I wanted to go when we’d done the family holiday in Assam, and places like Shillong were not as crowded as they are now, and (since that was in May), would have been awesomely cloudy and damp and all:o but that didn't happen. so, when work came up there, I jumped

The Mawsami Cave(s) looks so eerie and yet so inviting. Love the shot. So much prettiness and God, am I J of your travels.

[pinkoliphaunt]

Yes, it was rather eerie, and I don't care much for caves myself. But turned out to be excelent fun:)

Don't be J, don't be J... it is but once in a very blue moon that i get to go to fun places;o)

how cool da ! how long does it take to go here from calcutta, I presume you went to cal on work ?

Not many go to the north east actually. A pal of mine recently went to sikkim/bhutan on road and had such a good time

[pinkoliphaunt]

It was great fun!:) I actually went to Cal, Guwahati and Shillong on work on three separate trips:o, so funner still, since I didn't have to pay for any of them:))

Went through Guwahati, as ex-Cal would take ages. It's 3 - 3.5 hours by road from Guw.

I freak majorly on mountains so the N-e has always been a fav spot. I think they're getting quite a few toursist now. I would just love to do Arunachal and Bhutan too, but it's bound to be expensive I think:( your friend must have had loads of fun... a road trip around there would be great!

[discoboy71]

on work ! how cool. Arent you in HR ??

Bhutan is gorgeous and yes expensive for sure, since you have to book your travels through a tour guide in advance and show your iternary. I think my friend managed to have a basic plan and then moved on his own, need to ask him the details again

[pinkoliphaunt]

Yikes...no, though you're just an alphabet away. I'm in market research - MR:)

I've always found the idea of Bhutan reasonable exotic. Didn't they not have TV until recently?:)
