Darjeeling, November 2013

Keep forgetting to update blog as these days I spend more time on facebook! I'm  not very proud of these anyway as I have a problem with my lens, I thought it was just dirty but can't seem to get rid of an unsightly splodge.. 

It was a good trip, though rather tiring. The problem with mountains is that you have to keep walking up and down, and everywhere has lots of steps!
