It was a day after Christmas. We are in Sikkim.

We are driving to Nathu La. The pass which connects India to China (Tibet). A place Indian Army has one of its highest posts @ 15,000 feet.

The weather was fantastic. The sky was crystal clear blue. The snow was not heavy but right. The cedar trees and small bushes providing lovely contrast to white all around!

The complete route was picture perfect. Apt for the Yuletide!


Only thing that was missing was a Santa and his Reindeers!
