Me, Myself & My Journey

Day 5 March 19 2008 Tawang Around 6:30 AM, we all were ready and we checked out and came down. Bittu as usual had a surprise for us...

We were the first group to reach there and gave the application for the permits. Around 10:30 AM we got the permits and told Bittu to start.
