Road to Home

15 Aug  Last morning in Ngari and we had to Leave Leh by AI 446 at 11:00am. Today is a public holiday in India. The kids left early to take part in Marathon. As the bus was leaving the gate, they stopped and yelled out: "Bye Bye! See you again! We miss you!"

A tinge of sadness came to our hearts. Yes! We do miss them and will miss them for sure. Seeing them growing over the last 4 or 5 years (for my case) you get a sense of attachment to them. We wish them well and grow up to be useful and kind persons. 

                           Bye for now. Hope to see you soon, if not in 2 years' time

 

Meanwhile another rainbow appeared at the back of our guesthouse again. Another auspicious sign for us?

I guess this is the way that someone above shows us the sign of approval

 

The fond memories of this place will stay in most of our mind for a long time. Things like the warm hospitality from everyone....

                             Like a big family                                          

All the cutie pies

 

But most of all; the food that Gen Damchoe and the 2 smiley guys in the kitchen have painstakingly prepared for us every day and night...........

 

Vegetarian pizza, Pasta and special fried potatoes wedges

And....Momo of course!

We were in time to see the flag raising ceremony at the airport since it was their Independent day

 

We arrived in Deli at 13:25pm.  We went straight to Tibet House to see our beloved teacher Geshe Dorji  We had tea and a good short teaching from him. May we have more chance in the future to come and learn from him.

We then proceed to have a simple Chinese dinner before we board AI 380 at 23:15pm for home.

 

 Wow! Do we miss Chinese food...even in an Indian restaurant
