BEAUTIFUL SCENES OF ALMORA, WHERE SRI ANIRVAN SPENT MOST OF HIS LIFE
Day1, dark clouds and heavy rains welcomed us. It got so cold that I feared my Summer vacation is going to turn into a winter vacation.
I would observe this village house from our terrace everyday. The lady of the house would work non-stop. Where does she get her energy and motivation from?
Stairs that lead to cottages
Cozy seating place by the window
Found this interesting thing to keep our knickknacks
I am growing fond of these wall mounted candle holders. This is not just for decoration though. Power cuts are usual there.
Day 3 was pleasantly sunny. If you look closely you can see the Nanda Devi peaks amidst the clouds.
Is this a flower or leaves?
Click from the terrace. Love these blue doors.
Rain water harvesting
On way to Binsar Forest Reserve. Phone clicks from inside the car.
Binsar was really dense and full of these lovely red flowers.
Nothing to say about this. Still I found this pit interesting.
Saw quiet a few of such lovely families on our way back.
Trek to 800 year old Katarmal Sun temple.
Spotted these banana bunches on our way.
Ahh the trek ends.
Spotted some people who had come all the way from Assam to get a special Sun worship done here.

Couldn’t resist digging out some photos from our 2008 trip. This was taken in early November 2008.
Cluster of 125 temples at Jageshwar.
Dandeshwar – The beautiful temple in the most breathtaking serenest surrounding I have ever seen. The energy of the place is something that can not be described but only be felt.
Some final pics of the resort.
Our cottage in 2008
Floor outside the cottage was beautifully covered with these pebbles.
Thanks for flowing with me through this post. Doing long posts has not been my forte. The thought behind this is that whenever I start looking for places to visit, I find personal blogs of people very helpful in terms of pics and reviews. If this post helped or inspired you in any way or just gave you a good feeling by looking at the pics, then I would consider my time on this post well spent. Thank you!
