SLEEPLESS NIGHT & MORNING HIKE

It was the first day of New year, I just had my coffee before I went to bed. I was suppose to hike with a friend the next day. So I retired early at around 9.30pm.  But I did not get any sleep and laid tossing to and forth until 3.30am. Was it the coffee or something in the head that kept me awake. Was I having too much to think?  I usually had no problem with tea or coffee before bed time. Anyway I tried to get some sleep and finally gave up at around 4.00am as I had to start my drive to the meeting point at 5.00am. It takes me an hour to reach there.So I thought I might as well get up and  get ready to drive to rendezvous with my friend. I was like a walking zombie,but thank God I did survived the hike.It was a a back to back hike.The Tabur west andTabur East.Total of 6 hours or so. The reward as usual was a sum[tuous lunch at a nearby restuarant.Our main course was the famous begger chicken and winter melon soup which every one enjoyed. Here are some of the shots taken during the hike
