Finally got around to watching Himalaya, a wonderful 3 dvd doco written,presented and narrated by Michael Palin, his sixth in his brilliant travelling series. Thoroughly enjoyed watching it , stunning visuals and interesting insights into the different lands/cultures that the team journey into -which include Pakistan/India/Nepal/Tibet/China/Assam/Butaan. Highly recommend it , for those interested check out some of the brilliant photography at Palins travel website http://www.palinstravels.co.uk/photogallery.php?offset=0&photobook=1&series=14......wheres the closest travel agency :D

there's also a fine book accompanying the TV series-as BBC does-and it has some stunning images..well worth a look and even a read if you have the time :)
