Greetings from India
Hi All,
Just to say hallo from India (New Delhi)
All well here, Monsoon rains are falling, so temparatures are now down to 33 to 36 degrees
Saw a Patrol yesterday for the first time, 4.5, looks like 99 plus model.
Now planning to go to the Hymalayas next month.
Some photos of the trafic in Town!!
Regards,
Wilfred

Re: Greetings from India
Hi Wilfred,
I also had the opportunity to spend some time working in India with Tata Consulting... mostly in Chennai and Mumbai... the traffic, crowds and monsoon took some getting used to... really enjoyed getting out into the rural areas though.
Enjoy while you can, the Himalayas will be great!

Peter

Re: Greetings from India
Onthou die fotos van die Hymalayas! Dis 'n kans duisend wat jy moet deel. Ons hou intussen die fort hier by die huis (& werk)
Gaan jy nog steeds soontoe ry, of vlieg jy op?
PS. Ons kollega Riaan Delport het sy Jeep Grand Cherokee ingeruil op 'n Patrol 4.8 - goudbruin. Mooi toestand. Onthou om te kom kyk as jy weer kom inloer...

Re: Greetings from India
Hi Daar,
Is lekker om van julle te hoor.
Alles goed hier, die monsoon is in alle erns hier en van die strate gister was half lyf diep en die manne probeer met plat karre daar ry.
Eerste besoek aan AGRA gehad waar die Taj Mahal is. Ongelooflik.
Die Hymalayas moet nog 'n rukkie wag, dalk besoek ons in Oktober, maar dan is meeste van die passe al toe gesneeu.
Sorry, English now!!
In the LADAK area is a great overland trip that one can do with 4x4 that you can hire, 10 days into very remote areas and bush camping. Thats the next big one. Will keep you updated.
I am back in SA for a couple of days, 16 to 22 Sept. Will start the Patrol a bit.
Greetings
Wilfred
