Darjeeling!

Darjeeling was a nice hillside town, but I think 1 day day there was probably just about enough time.

 Spotted the toy train on the way up, and it took us about 5 seconds to wiz right past it.
 I made the mistake of eating some momos (dumplings) on the ride up. BAD idea! Spent the evening in bed with a bucket and bottle of water. Luckily, I was pretty much recovered 2 days later when I arrived in Kolkata! The Darjeeling tea was nice though!
 I was told that most of January was pretty cloudy, so I lucked out with the clear weather! Here's Kangchenjunga in left and Darjeeling on the right.
 Unfortunately, Darjeeling, like all places in India, is not impervious to litter!
