Still no power, and camera battery went flat overnight while I learnt how to drive it. So no photographs today.
We start off with a 26km downhill. Slow due to the poor road surface.First down through the forest, and then lower through crop covered hillside.
ZigZag'ing down into the Sutlej river valley we stop for tea and soft drinks at a Dhaba midway down the hill.We have lunch at roadside restaurant 14km from Rampour.
Reaching Rampour Dad and I are 20 minutes ahead of the others, so we stop outside a "Monkey God" temple and take the opportunity for a snooze
in the shade.
After booking into the HPTDC Hotel (Dad's favourite) we head into town for a look around.Most shops are closed as it's a Sunday - however several Barber's are open, as well as a General Store. Sunday must be the accepted day to cut
ones hair.
A couple of kids adopt us and accompany us as we walk across the swing bridge to the other side of the river and back.
