Post card from Gangtok ( Sikkim) 1981





View of the Himalaya in Gangtok


Another muddy journey by jeep and I was able to go to Gangtok without any permit and without showing my British passport; I simply pretended to be a native Indian and I entered the gates of Heaven, Sikkim!


I was in the clouds , staying for one night in The Elgin Nor-Khill hotel, blend of Sikkimese and British architecture, situated high up on the hill side with a view of Mount Kanchenjunga in front of me and a view of the football match being played below be me; sheer magic!!!
