Despite being impatient to get to Narkanda we could not resist the temptation to stop for a cup of tea and to click snaps of the beautiful landscape. One by one we passed through tiny villages like Theog, Koti, Matiana and Silaru.
There were apple orchards on the way and one could easily pluck apples from the trees by the road. There were trolleys down below, fitted with wire rope to cart the apples away. At some places we saw apple boxes being loaded into trucks. We wanted to sample the fruit but there was no retail sale. We would have had to buy the entire carton for Rs 600. We decided to pass it up this time.
