Thanks for the compliment on HULK, gautam109. Quote:
Two questions please :
a. Which camera?
b. Name of the property (The cottage by the Chel)
|
The camera is a mirror-less from Fujifilm. The model is XT-100. The name of the property is Chel Chittong but you won't find it listed in any portal. They have to be contacted personally through facebook and it has just 2 rooms. Quote:

Thanks feluda86. Great to know that you frequent Yuru as well. We found about this place in 2016 on this (White Sikkim in a Duster AWD)trip.
The pictures posted by you fantastic Quote:

2019 had indeed been eventful for the Hulk. Wish you many more happy miles. |
Thanks a lot Navtej. They loved it. In fact, now they want more. Isn't this what Himalayas do to you after a trip. Quote:

Thanks for sharing! |
Thanks a lot mi2n. And yes I remember the look on your face when I told you about the stairs. Quote:

Thanks Sayantan. I think I should have bought the camera earlier. . Never mind now we should plan a trip together.
Chel is actually bhpian Teesta's discovery.
