Next day – off to Dhankar

India 2010

Every family – if they have cattle or not – of a village has to take care of all the animals for one day. So one or more members of that family bring them to the feeding grounds in the morning. Watch over them for the day and return home with them in the evening.

  1. Hi mein Grosser,
    wir sind zurück aus der Sonne und hier ist es lausig kalt!
    Ich hoffe für euch Wandersleut, dass eure Tour im September bei besserem Wetter stattfindet. Wann kommst Du wieder?
    Pass auf Dich auf und zieh Dich warm an,
    bis bald,
    Dein alter joga

  2. Montag abend bin ich schon wieder in Stuttgart. 21.08 mit dem ICE aus Frankfurt. Wenn nichts schiefgeht.
