Shillong 09-09-2012

It’s been a few days more than a month and its still beautiful.

Accha baccho batao aapne kya seekha?  Shillong ki vaadiyan na kewal sundar hai apitu unki sundarta lambi awadhi ke baad bhi utni hi manmohak lagti hai jaisi wo prathan darshan pe lagti hai.

The beauty of the valleys of Shillong are enduring. Even after spending some time here one does not easily get over it.

I’ve settled into the hostel. This is a 2D representation of the view from there…

Oh there is another thing that hasn’t changed… We sleep a lot maybe it’s something to do with the height and how soon it can wear us off, so we sleep and get refreshed.

But with all the beauty and freshness comes the effects of onslaught of the city on the landscape. A large area of virgin forests have been cleared to make new colonies. Wherever we go we can see some construction work going on. The effect can be already seen, this year has been the hottest in many, as far as the signals that nature gives to warn us of what is not suiting her health is concerned this fever is just the first indication.
