Hey everybody, thanx for your wishes, i just read them. I came back from Mata Vaishno Devi around 1 hour back. Pretty tiring it was. We had to climb around 15 Kms (up/down 30kms) on steep hill (more than 6500ft. above sea level), and to our fortunes we had strong winds and rain on our way, so we were completely drenched by the time we reached on top. I completed it in 3.5 hours which is my personally best in my last 3 visits. My legs are still aching pretty badly. I was amazed to know that locals there do up/down (around 30Kms) in 6 hours, with 30-45 minutes stay at the top. All in all it was a very nice experience as usual. For those of you who don't understand what this is all about, i have attached a few photographs. Quality of photographs is not that good, as i was not carrying my camera (You are not allowed to carry camera at the main temple, so it gets a little difficult to dispose off the camera at that point), these are clicked from my phone.
When i was on my way back i just remebered i could click pics from my phone. I dont think you'll like me in the pics, as i got my head shaved from there. Looking a little scary atm.
