[Tibet]: Day before flight

I'm on my way from work. I shouldn't be on the laptop but I'm more often than not nowadays. Too much traffic. I have a mild headache - it's like the one that comes when I eat something odd (that cutlet?) or sunstroke type or that tea-missing thing. Also that dust thing jaadhoo...on the staircase. Anyway something. Dj asked what's my state of mind. I said neutral. That's what it is...usually. I wonder if I should've dragged work to the end. But I'm all packed and such.

While I'm going to Kailash...somehow the idea of Tibet is more appealing. Could be Tintin's influence. Or Dalai Lama...they say, we aren't supposed to even bring up his name there. 

Many points were coordinated to make this trip happen. MM has been at it since many, many years. We almost went in 2016 and then it got cancelled. At that time, we were going to the source of the Brahmaputra. This one is more straightforward kinda. Day after...we'll be driving deep inside Nepal for 10.5 hours to reach the border of Tibet. And then we crossover. And drive another 1.5 hours. So quickly we'll go up and up into the Himalayas. 

I don't have much to write. Want to stay switched off. In the mountains. After a looong time. So it is.
