New manali

On the day that I discovered Dylan's coffee shop in old manali has a la pavoni...and today I go there, taste, and maybe just a slightly wistful thought of another couple of them, one in a slightly sad state in need of a rubber washer replaced...

And dann and Fred from pushkar are here, so a lovely afternoon of talk and some guerrilla reiki on freds knee. And later...the moon upon the mountains was most beautiful, this is a hypnotically tranquil place...despite the honking horns of India upon the aural periphery...and it's something odd to be caught up in slothful retreat.

There's little needs done, sit, look, listen, drift...read...and yet I'm aware that the next, last, couple of weeks would be a bit too long...
