I've spent around 4 hours on the Internet trying to map out the rest of my journey. So far the only thing I've accomplished is buying my plane ticket from Kerala back to Delhi to fly home on 23 December. That's a good thing, I need that :)
The Indian Rail website leaves a lot to be desired. Yikes, it's slow and cumbersome, but it eventually gives the needed. Airfares are crazy! The ticket price is quoted as 1,990 Rupees plus taxes. They don't tell you the taxes include a fuel charge and are 3,500 Rupees! Totally insane. I just don't feel like burning up time on a train right now though.
Dehradun and Mussoorie is tomorrow, then I'm off to an ashram in Haridwar. I'll be able to see the Himalayas in Mussoorie. The transportation and timing is just not working out for me to go to Dharamsala. Well, at this point anyway. Since it's already cold there, I doubt I'll be going later in the trip either. One never knows though...
Nice yoga practice this morning. Didn't make it to Swamiji's kutir today, the Internet ate my day. Saw a nice coat in a shop after breakfast, but I don't know where I'd put it in my luggage. I'd need it if I go north, but it doesn't look that way. I still may buy it and send it home. It rocks and I think I'll really regret it, if I don't buy it.
That's it for now. Time's up and Swamiji is picking me up to go into the market area. That's a wild place!
