ReplyDeleteHi NB,
ReplyDeleteYour 2 fellow lady trekkers (One of them a Datin)seemed determined though they're not big & strong in their physique. Seeing snow-capped Himalayan Mountain ranges sure is inspiring and refreshing, could entice more adventures. Great to have that prestigious view while having meals at the highland's hotel lodge. Cascading water fall at 4,400 ft above sea level suggests you may not too be too far from legendary Shangrila.
