Here's Dave takingh a little rest at about hour 12 of the drive, which would be about hour 10 of the vomiting marathon. Never will you meet a cheerier fellow with worse breath.

Ladye makes friends everywhere she goes. Check out this woman's shades. Uber-cool, for a Ladakhi grandmother.

This "elderly" woman led Ladye on a strenuous hike near the Valley of Flowers. I think Ladye wants to be an old Ladakhi woman when she grows up.
