Kashmir Sep-2017-Known & lesser known places- Gurez Valley

mousourik

In love with mountains
Great going. :)

Please post captions to the photos (otherwise they look like orphans) and tour details (otherwise we feel like step brothers).

Regarding planning a tour to Kashmir : it's true that most people die lying in bed, and even then everybody goes to bed every night. But the question is how much anxiety one should bear while on vacation. Nobody perhaps keeps in mind that tourists are spared (although, attack on Amarnath pilgrims, and another incident a couple of years back when a bomb exploded below a seat in the bus carrying Bengali tourists - cannot be wiped out from memory).

So, why should I remain tensed all the time while holidaying? There is no dearth of (hyper) tension in life.

All said and done, would love to go there any day.

Bingo Thx.
Yet in edit I see image name/no not image to put captions.Unfortunately pics being too many it's a Herculean task to match no with image & put captions or rename images on drive.Hope the coder does the background magic to make it easy- if possible-so that I can simply view n put caption against image in "EDIT"
