what an absolutely amazing journey this has been thus far...a really long flight but so worth the hip flexor trouble. i am at the foothills of the himalayas, which, like the foothills of colorado, are windy right now. one mountain range to the next. the mountains here, however, are way bigger, and i havent even seen the start of them yet! the highways here are unbelieveable, one false move from your hero bicycle into the way of a seriously speeding population of vehicles, and you are done with, absolutely crushed. sometimes, back home, i will shout out at the speeding cars, this is a neighboorhood area...but here, its very creative out of the lines, so defensive, drive bys. the air...smokey but a scent that is really one of a kind. i was expecting the airport to be quite of a busy little place, not the case, very mellow, very easy to get around. on the drive up to rishikesh, i noticed that i never really saw any women out and about...i figure that is my goal now, where are the women! i will find them. i have begun my studies of the yoga poses and philosophies and today we will be escorted into town to meet some locals. i know i will find some local friends.
well, breakfast time now...i will let you know how our journey to the Ganges waterfall pans out tomorrow.
love you all!
