Nature calls everyone here...!!

Realization that I am in Hanle came really late, in the car on the way to my work place. It was completely different from the image I had before I came.
The tyre of the vehicle i was travelling in punctured, and I was nervous when cool breeze blowed all over the place accompanied with drizziling rain. Soonafter, the rain stopped and so the breeze. That moment was worthseeing with crystal blue sky and more I was amazed to see a small group of black necked crane. I sighted them quite a far lest they see and fly away......!! I called my friend in the car to get me my camera as i know what i was seeing that particular moment was one of it's kind and if i manage to get the crane in my camera then probably i may be one amongst the few proud owners of the collections of blacknecked crane and it's family. I thought I should go more closely them so that i may get much closer... infact put them all inside my camera he he ( that's what is lust all about, na?), I was frightened because I found that I had travelled much unawared towards the somewhat virgin Lake beneath the lone sandy hill and I didn’t go for it. Whatever I got from that little moment was much more than I ever have dreamt of. However, my friend and I were tightlipped about this for some reason or another. After a little while the car was ready, fixed it and started towards my destination finding great places and scenic beauties along the way which made me feel that atleast this part of the land where I am travelling should also be allowed for the visitors so that everyone can hear the call of the nature. But anyhow, I think it was a great experience nevertheless.
