Taking a ride into the Himalayan foothills is always a good idea when trying to escape the heat and humidity of India. Once our boxes were packed, we took a half day to revisit some of our favorite spots in the hill station of Musoorie.
Yet driving up to this little town always brings fear and trepidation to my heart due to its winding roads, speeding buses and steep drop-offs.
So these kinds of sights tend to bring much comic relief to the stress of driving.
I am truly amazed by these men - by either their shear bravery (that is a bamboo ladder by the way) or utter stupidity in attempting some of the feats they do.
And in this photo it is difficult to see and appreciate the ravine over which this wires are stretched.
And so.....we had a good laugh down the mountain and were thankful we were able to make that brief trip once again.
Wow, that sent a shudder through me...memories of our trip to Shimla came pouring in!
