Day 561 - Waterfalls, chai, and snacks

Although the wind was much less windy than yesterday, we were slightly disappointed that it was overcast when we woke up today. Yesterday was such a beautiful clear day, and we were hoping for the same today as we planned to go out to some waterfalls and to the riverside beach for some lazing in the sun!

After brekky, we headed out to the waterfalls despite the cloud, and had a lovely time walking through the forest and following the small path that led the way. The waterfalls were pretty, though not necessarily impressive, but it was good to be out and about and the waterfalls gave us something to aim for.

On the way back into town we stopped off at a sandy beach, where we read our books and were kept company by a cute dog who just wanted to sit down and have some pats! As it started to drizzle, Adam decided to jump in the river, but only stayed in long enough for a photo as it was freezing!!! It's impossible to leave India without having the experience of swimming in the Holy Ganges ... according to the crazier member of the Adlibing team.

As we walked along the beach our new four-legged friend followed us, and loved playing fetch with a stick - bounding up and down the sand in his excitement!

We stopped off for chai and snacks at a street side stall, and then back in town we stopped for more chai and snacks!! It really is a hard life sometimes ...

In the evening we managed to book our train tickets online for tomorrow night - we're heading to Amritsar for a few days, and then we plan to go up to McLeod Ganj (the home of the Dalai Lama) for Christmas.

Adlibing a cloudy day.
