On to the next day, after a few pep talks from my fellow cyclists and my new Indian friends, I woke up feeling better. The campsite we had stayed at was beautiful, so remote. We spent the night looking at the stars, there were no clouds and you could see thousands. It was freezing though! Sleeping in hoodie, socks and wooly hats at the moment! The first part of today was uphill, a horrible unforgiving road as well. I had altitude sickness at this point too, the air was a lot thinner as today was the highest point, Kunjum (or Kunzum) pass, 14,931 feet! I was so proud as I managed to cycle it, and it was so beautiful when we reached the top. Prayer flags and prayer stones everywhere, I was so overcome that I was there, it was great, we had group photo and there was lots of hugging. I was in so much pain though but it was definitely worth it.
