Into the Woods

After visiting the tea factory on Saturday we explored the Himalayian Woods on Sunday. Those woods are not to mess with!

It was a sunny and beautiful morning as we decided to explore the hills north of our camp, but the rain season is still here and the weather is unstabile. When we started walking the fog had covered up the hillside and who knows what it was hiding...

After we left the last houses in the village behind us we found a narrow road that we decided to follow, but we were soon to find out that there was tings that were crawling around in the gras and bushes. It was Ida who commented on the blood on my leg and asked if I was hurted. I had not felt anything and could not understand why I was bleedning before Ida felt something on her leg too. A leech had attached itself to her leg and was sucking her blood! We looked around and saw several leeches on the ground together with several other suspicious creeps. We decided to end our nice breake and keep moving.

The fog was all the time getting thicker in the woods. We kept on walking until we found an old ruin. What could it be? The place had a strange aura of oldness and loneliness. We looked around for a while before we took a look in the water... Three water spirits streched their arms out towards us and tried to grab us from the green water!

This was not a place to stay...

I ran as fast as I could away from this green old place, found my self a tree and hided until I was sure the water spirits didn't follow us.

Fore sure; those woods are not to mess with!

Far away up in the hills we found the main road again. A bit shaky from our exploration of the woods we sat down and calmed ourselves with some Ferrero Rocher chocolate. We met a Indian couple having a picknick and they could tell us that there was one bus on this road every day, and that it would soon come. What a relief. After 10 minutes the bus came and took us back to the camp for 10 rupi (1,20 NOK). And what a happy ending on a scary story!
