I was at Kaas one year after this visit too. Never got time to write about it. Will leave you for now with a picture from the second visit.

Impressed by your ability to produce such wonderful snaps man. I m a fan of your photography. Do sign an autograph sometime when we set out for a trip together. By the way, waiting for that unsaid trips pics and travel details. Don't disappoint me, make it fast


Drive safe.

Cheers

Autograph, you serious?

Now a days got curious with gardening and am quite deeply involved with my fruit trees and roof top vegetable garden. Most of time gets dedicated there on weekends and holidays that I don't travel.

Anyways I'll get you some more pictures till the day I sit and pen down that trip. It definitely needs a lot of time since that trip duration was nearly 10 days

There is nothing refreshing like seeing your snaps of TL, man. Especially kashmir, wayanad and kaas valley. I have gone through almost all your TL's but some remains. I am in the process of going through them.

Your swift has done 47k while civvy has clocked double. Any partiality towards civvy.

Anyways, I will keep pestering you till you post that TL. I really hope, I can do a wonderful trip with you someday.

Thanks Voyageur.

If I take the Swift, wifey would drive most of the distance and I'll remain as an onlooker, hence the affinity top take Civvy out. Wifey is definitely not very happy about this though

Sure Voyageur, we must drive together some day. Let us get connected in FB so that we can chart out a plan

That is a good reason for civvy clocking double the kms.

I will surely PM my details of FB.

Re: Kaas - The Valley of Flowers

Dear Lalu,
I went to Kaas after reading this TL and watching those mesmerizing pictures you have taken. I could not thank you then as I was not a member. Now that I am a member it will be a "Gunaah" not to do so.

So thank you for this TL and the lovely pics as always.

Best,
