... on my bike was the back wheel without air.
Great, number 7 But, as luck such a play along, the people had decided Srinagar, after 2 months of opening general strike that day to the shops again. All my sake. And because it is the first day of Ramadan. Ken, a friendly Expolizist from New Zealand, long-time resident of New Buckingham Palace, drove me then on his motorcycle through the city to finally buy a new tire. After only 3 hours, and 30 determines demand in shops we had actually found one. The rearing was then the smallest problem.
Now I will give you the first "New present Buckingham Palace. There are loose in Srinagar 1000 House Boats on the lake, in all quality classes. My boat has three Gastraeume and a salon for everyone. First of an outside view, rather plain.

Srinagar is so beautiful, it is very sad for the mind here. On every corner are heavily armed soldiers and police, armored vehicles and all gemusstert suspicious. Me not so much a foreigner is immediately recognized as such. I then put up with the new tires in the otherwise almost inaccessible old town to the famous ancient wooden, visit Jamia Mosque. All roadblocks were gone and there was a lively market. In this mosque will fit into several 100,000 people on the last Friday of Ramadan to go there right up to 500,000 people! have
looked a little funny already, I also was the only tourist there. But were all friendly and no one has thrown stones at me. In the adjacent Lively bazaar we went to.
a bridal shop, but there were subtle spices. I bought, of course, the bags were then sealed with hocmoderner technology.

The next morning, so today, I was awakened again by a strong beat. By 4 clock in the morning. This time, however, I prepared it, because in front of the house boat is a Shikara waited on me (which is a rowing boat). That should bring me to the floating markets. At dawn we arrived there. In contrast to the boring floating markets of Bangkok, where more tourists are as Haendlerboote way, it was very lively here. With me there were only two tourist boats, to loosen or Einkaeuferboote 100 dealers. It was busy haggling.
Tomorrow is my last day in Srinagar, before I leave on Sunday to Delhi. 900 km, it is still there. But first I make a trip to Golmarg, about 60 kilometers from here. There are up a cable car up to 5000 meters. (Hello my Swiss friends to make the first!) In the winter you can go there supposedly excellent skiing. Departures from 5000 to 2500 feet down! Now in the summer you can probably go for a walk and look beautiful on clear days to the famous K2 with over 8000 meters.
More like this tomorrow.
