has opened outside the sky all the locks, the monsoon proposes to complete. Opportunity to blog.
I'm in Dharamsala, the exile seat of the Dalai Lama and have a nice hotel room with WiFi found.
Yesterday it should be just relaxing eigentich 200 kilometers by road from Amritsar to Dharamsala. But somewhere in me has shown a well-meaning Sikhs in the wrong direction, so that it was at the end of 350 kilometers. But I have not regretted it, true to the famous motto of motorcycle and motor home drivers, that "the way the goal is. On the originally planned route I had so missed some:
Before my "diversion" I was in a "Dhaba" (simple restaurant on the roadside) Stop to me to enjoy a hot Indian tea for breakfast. The tea was good, even better, however, this Sikh me and my camera views in detail the technique of "turban wrapping" showed:

to phone you have the equipment then under the turban . Insert
In return I gave the friendly Sikh tea, for which he wanted to return the favor with a glass of whiskey. I kindly declined, then offered the cigarette. He then dug a little in his pocket and presented a wax paper wrapped in red goo. "Good sex all night!" Viagra Indian? Well, they have indeed the Kamasutra invented. I think he holds the future for me and all the Germans either ascetic saint or a complete idiot, because this offer, I politely declined. It was only 10 clock in the morning!
I came through a village in which almost all men wear a blue turban, strange. And then there was music in a yard and a lot of people sat together happily. Two good reasons for a break, which was then quite long. They invited me to dinner the same, no sooner had I turned off the engine. Lecker wars: saffron rice, lentil soup, potato and fresh vegetables Chabati bread. How do you eat this without fork or spoon? Dipping with the bread, bite, hmmm!
a fellow photographers I have met yet , a nice large Sikh with a 3 sq ft studio. He wanted to make with my camera a group photo, now I'm finally twice with it (the type without a turban in the elegant motorcycle pants).
Photographer and his father
Normally it is the other way around, but this time I I stopped in the middle of road, two policemen and asked a parking lot. Only the photo of course - saw two on their Royal Enfield 350cc motorcycle police just too nice out. Then of course they wanted a picture - with me - and admired my Royal Enfield, after all, a 500. In the end they were so excited that they have a round of ice-cold cola expenditure. I was also happy. Thanks to the Punjab Highway Police! The white uniformed driver is actually the much higher level compared to the passenger. When I asked why he was going, he smiled: "Because it gives me a lot of fun!" The man is so right.
Even 70 miles to Dharamsala and I wanted to actually arrive there in the light. It was then nothing more, because I got this one in between:
colorfully dressed musicians, chic women in a sari and a young man on a horse, hung complete with notes: A groom prepares in front of his family and friends at his wedding. The bride, unfortunately I have not seen that was still at her family home. Since you can not go past turn! Excited I was welcomed and had to dance the same. It looked safe from funny: The all in their Sunday suit and I send my motorcycle pants. Nevertheless, I should like to come along to the wedding, but what I had once again rejected.
way wedding ceremony: As it has secretly married my sister, as I wrote in the comments here. So also in this way all the best for you!
It was now almost dark and I was concerned not reach my goal. By 22 clock, 12 hours after loose my start in the morning, I had achieved my goal for the day Dharamsala. Calculated average speed today: About 18 km / h. Photographic satisfaction factor: 100%!
